Part of Wallumetta, country of the Wallumedegal before the Europeans came, the area that became Denistone East was granted to settlers in the 1790s, and farmed until the 1880s when subdivision took place. Though the promised railway line did not eventuate, substantial housing development took place, with two public housing estates built after World War II.
