Mosman Park is a western suburb of Perth, Western Australia on the north bank of the Swan River in the local government area of the Town of Mosman Park.

From 1937 it was named Mosman Park, derived from Mosman in Sydney, the birthplace of Richard Yeldon, a member of the Buckland Hill Road Board.[3] Mosman Park is now considered an affluent suburb, but prior to the 1970s was one of Perth's major industrial centres.
