Statement of Significance
Evidence of mining activity from the 1860s and after at this location include a large dam and a relatively well preserved puddler. The condition and integrity, together with nearby sites help to demonstrate different types of shallow alluvial mining.
The Puddler and Dam No. 2, Victoria Gully is historically and scientifically important at a LOCAL level as a substantially intact example of an important gold mining technique. Gold mining sites are of crucial importance for the pivotal role they have played since 1851 in the development of Victoria.
Overall the Puddler and Dam No. 2, Victoria Gully is of LOCAL significance.
