Statement of Significance
Barn at Dunhelen Homestead, Greenvale, is a large bluestone barn erected circa 1860. The central portion has a large central lantern in the centre of the shallow hipped roof, which is continued to form large lean-to roofed sections. There is a large segmental arched doorway with symmetrically arranged window and door openings to either side. The walls are in random coursed bluestone and the roof is clad in corrugated iron.
The barnwas one of the most distinctive barns in Victoria before being burnt out in 1973. The building is a most distinctive design, one of the most unusual vernacular farming structures and is of considerable architectural importance. The large central lantern and the unusually long lean-to roofs are most distinctive. The stonemasonry is also of note. The barnwas rebuilt, but with steel framing rather than timber.
