| Significance |
These plantations mark an important aspect in the development of the State's forestry industry. They are remnants of the experimental stage of silviculture, instigated by the Conservator of Forests, J E Brown, which preceded the operations of the timber industry in South Australia as it is known today.
The plantation of Pinus radiata is believed to be the oldest remaining plantation of this species in the State. The stands of Pinus canariensis and Pinus pinaster are also among the oldest silvicultural plantations in the Adelaide Hills. (HSA Assessment Report 1999)
