Statement of Significance

St Agnes' stables and cottages, Calder highway, Kyneton, is a large brick house erected circa 1872 for members of Salathiel Booth's family incorporating an earlier bluestone house of the 1850's. The stables date from 1876. The asymmetrical, red brick house is characterised by its encircling iron verandahs. Roofs are slate and quoins, bay windows and chimneys are features. The brick stables have a central gabled section. St Agnes' stables and cottages forms part of the notable townscape of Kyneton, an important nineteenth century highway town. The house is a landmark on the Calder highway and forms an important contrast to nearby 'rock house'. Architecturally St Agnes is a typical but particularly substantial Italianate house, given particular importance by its size and internal fittings and for the complementary stables, cottages, and walls, all of which are most distinctive. St Agnes' stables and cottages are in good condition and are substantially intact.

      ST AGNES HOMESTEAD (STABLES AND COTTAGES) - 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.
