Experiment Farm and Parramatta Park are key places in the agricultural history of Australia. The first crops in Parramatta were planted by Henry Dodd, on a site across across the river, opposite the Crescent, approaching the Old Kings Oval. Experiment Farm is on the site of land granted to James Ruse, the first convict to be granted land in the colony". Henry Dodd is buried in St Johns Cemetery, the oldest marked grave in Australia.
