Conservator's Hut, former Forest Office and 1876 Nursery Site, Bundaleer Forest Reserve |
Registered Name |
Conservator's Hut, former Forest Office and 1876 Nursery Site - Bundaleer Forest Reserve |
Significance |
Of the number of stone buildings within the Bundaleer Forest Reserve, the Conservator's Hut and former Forest Office best represent early forest management in Australia. The small but solid structures of the official on-site office and the comfortable quarters provided for the Conservator when he visited the area, reflect the importance placed on the forestry industry in the late 1870s. The remains of the stone-sided nursery beds were part of the first government plantation forest nursery in Australia, established in 1876. |
