There are three tributaries along Eastern Creek. Eastern Creek provides habitat for animals such as water bugs, snakes, fish, frogs and mammals. Sparse scattered stone fragments have been found along this creek line giving it Aboriginal significance. The Darug used the swimming holes along the stretches of this creek.
