Statement of Significance
The fence, which runs for several hundred metres in easterly and southerly directions, is constructed of interwoven logs. A rare survivor and in excellent condition. It is possibly maintained on an on going basis. The fence indicates the early settlement of land in the area for agricultural purposes. It is of importance for its potential to provide information that contributes to a greater understanding of the history of the settlement and establishment of the district, and has a strong presumption of archaeological research potential. Further historical research and archaeological investigation is recommended.
