DESCRIPTION
Details (Known As) Dwelling (former 'Glantawe House')
Registered Name Dwelling - Former Glentawe House
Significance Glantawe House was constructed for Basil Dunstan, Manager of the Willunga-Bangor (later Australian Slate Quarry) Company in 1925. It was probably designed by his father John Dunstan, a successful Sydney architect, who had purchased the derelict Bangor quarry in 1917. Technologically, the house appears to be unique in Australia. It is a fascinating display of slate building craft carried out by a family intimately involved in the slate industry, and was part of an innovative publicity and marketing strategy.

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 Council areas, 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 Planning and Design Code or their local council for Local Heritage Places.

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.
