Ferntree Gully Road was the main thoroughfare between Mulgrave Shire and Oakleigh, and at the beginning of the 20th century there were a large number of farms at Notting Hill. In 1920, there were dairy and poultry farms and market gardens, and the families agitated for a school which was finally opened in 1927. The school had an active Young Farmers' Club with livestock kept in the school grounds, and in 1937 was judged Victoria's best Young Farmers' Club. Notting Hill Primary School was closed in the mid 1970s with Students transferred to the newly built Monash Primary School. The shire transferred its offices from Oakleigh to Notting Hill in 1920, where they remained until 1955 when the growing area of Glen Waverley was the site chosen for larger offices.
The residential area of Notting Hill (formerly Clayton North) consists of some 700 houses, bordered to the north and west by Ferntree Gully and Blackburn Roads, and to the south and east by factories. The development, Westerfield Estate, was built by AVJennings as their first 'planned suburb', with no through roads, and easy pedestrian access to shops and schools. Much of Notting Hill is occupied by industrial premises, a large drive-in hardware superstore and the Monash Business Park.
Today Notting Hill is a busy suburb located between Clayton and Mount Waverley.
