Blackford Reserve including three cottages |
| Significance |
Blackford Reserve, or Murrabinna, is a place which expresses - and has helped to sustain - a distinctive, post-contact Aboriginal history in South Australia's South-East. The longevity of occupation at Blackford, for up to half a century, until the 1970s, was helped by the construction of several stone and iron cottages, an unusual, if not unique feature of such small Aboriginal reserves. Blackford is fundamentally different from other Aboriginal settlements in South Australia in that it was run entirely by and for its Aboriginal residents. There was never a white missionary, teacher or administrator in residence. In this sense Blackford is quite distinct from other places in its general class.

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.
