A large part of Whittington is laid out in cul-de-sacs and courts to inhibit traffic and to help create numerous neighbourhood reserves. Whittington contains a shopping centre, a community centre, recreation reserves and the Whittington Primary School.
History
The area of Whittington was originally part of Breakwater, and was named after an early land owner, James Whittington, during the 1920s.[3]
A Post Office of that name had been open since 1914. [4]
