Coolootoo Shepherd's Hut |
| Registered Name |
Coolootoo Shepherd's Hut |
| Significance |
The Coolootoo Shepherd's Hut, which was part of Old Canowie Station, is significant as a remnant of South Australia's early pastoral history in the Upper North. As a shepherd's hut it is remarkable for its use of stone (although now in disrepair) and as an example of the importance of shepherding prior to the introduction of permanent stock and boundary fencing in the pastoral industry in Australia. The Old Canowie Station, (recommended as a State Heritage Place in the Upper North Heritage Survey of 2000, but not entered on the Register), dates back to the 1850s and is intact and in good condition. The Coolootoo Shepherd's Hut is evidence of the size and operation of such pastoral properties in the nineteenth century. |
