The Ostrich Farm |
| Significance |
At a regional and State level the ostrich farm is historically significant as an example of the variety of land uses encouraged by the government and the role played by prominent pastoralists in utilising any possible productive use of arid lands. As such, the farm represents the theme of pastoralism in the latter part of the 19th century, when adjustment to the low rainfall areas became a matter of necessity (Flinders Ranges Heritage Survey, 1995). |
