Details (Known As) |
Jenkins Street Slips Precinct |
Registered Name |
Jenkins Street Slips Precinct |
Significance |
Shipbuilding, which is concerned with the building, repair and maintenance of ships and boats, has played a critical role in South Australian history since the establishment of the colony. Port Adelaide was the main port for the colony and the northern bank of the Gawler Reach was the centre of shipbuilding in South Australia. The Jenkins Street Slips Precinct is one of only a few places in South Australia where archaeological deposits associated with nineteenth and early twentieth-century shipbuilding are likely to remain. These deposits are believed to be highly intact and it is anticipated that thorough archaeological investigation of the Jenkins Street Slips Precinct will yield historical information about nineteenth and early twentieth-century shipbuilding not available through any other means. |

Disclaimer
While due care has been taken to ensure that the SA Heritage Places Database accurately reflects the South Australian Heritage Register and listings of Local Heritage Places in Development Plans, the State of South Australia does not accept liability for the use of the SA Heritage Database for any purpose. Users should consult the Department for Environment and Water - Heritage South Australia to confirm the listing of State Heritage Places and the relevant Development Plan for Local Heritage Places/Contributory Items.
In the majority of cases, the maps of State Heritage Places on this web site show the footprints of the most significant structures on a registered Place. However, sometimes they simply indicate the complete area of land comprising the Place. Work is proceeding to further refine the mapping of such places. It is also important to note that development control is not limited to the registered structures but extends to their setting and structures nearby (what is termed ‘development affecting’ a State Heritage Place). Hence it is vital that exact details of the listed place and implications for any proposed development be discussed with Heritage South Australia staff, as they cannot be deduced solely from the information on this web site. The inclusion of a place in the SA Heritage Register gives no right of public access. Permission to visit properties must be sought from the owners. The accuracy of the mapping of State Heritage Places is not guaranteed. Please contact Heritage SA ( https://www.environment.sa.gov.au/topics/heritage/sa-heritage-register) if you believe there is an error.
