    LOCK-UP - History

    The Lock Up, Dunkeld is a two celled bluestone building with a corrugated iron gabled roof that may have been constructed c.1860s. The building forms part of an early police complex which included a police residence (1861, demolished), stables building (1863), and toilet building (unknown date).
    
    The stables building, which is also built of bluestone with a corrugated iron gabled roof, is located adjacent to the lock up and has been altered for use as a garage. The toilet building is built of bluestone with a corrugated iron gabled roof.
    
    All of the buildings remain in police usage, however not for their original purposes.

    LOCK-UP - Permit Exemptions

    General Exemptions:

    General exemptions apply to all places and objects included in the Victorian Heritage Register (VHR). General exemptions have been designed to allow everyday activities, maintenance and changes to your property, which don’t harm its cultural heritage significance, to proceed without the need to obtain approvals under the Heritage Act 2017.

    Places of worship: In some circumstances, you can alter a place of worship to accommodate religious practices without a permit, but you must notify the Executive Director of Heritage Victoria before you start the works or activities at least 20 business days before the works or activities are to commence.

    Subdivision/consolidation: Permit exemptions exist for some subdivisions and consolidations. If the subdivision or consolidation is in accordance with a planning permit granted under Part 4 of the Planning and Environment Act 1987 and the application for the planning permit was referred to the Executive Director of Heritage Victoria as a determining referral authority, a permit is not required.

    Specific exemptions may also apply to your registered place or object. If applicable, these are listed below. Specific exemptions are tailored to the conservation and management needs of an individual registered place or object and set out works and activities that are exempt from the requirements of a permit. Specific exemptions prevail if they conflict with general exemptions.
