Statement of Significance
What is significant?
The site was first mapped in 1857 as within Section D of Main Road comprising of Allotments 7, 8, 9, 10. A comparison of street levels between the 1858 Contour Plan of Ballarat and 2012 Lidar indicates that there is likely to be 1m-2m change in elevation. The site is within Ballarat’s first commercial precinct and between two of the first alluvial gold fields mined in the initial rush.
How is it significant?
The site is of historical and archaeological significance.
Why is it significant?
The site is of historical significance as the location of an early residence and commercial precinct during the years of the Victorian gold rush – one of the most significant rushes in world history. The site is of archaeological significance due to its potential to contain artefacts, deposits and features that relate to the establishment of commercial operations in the gold rush, and other later 19th century activities
