Horsham heritage study

Droylsen
Stage one of Horsham’s Heritage Study has been released all 167 pages of it.
Consultants Grieve Gillett were commissioned by the Horsham Rural City Council and Heritage Victoria to prepare a list of places of potential heritage significance.
The team met with residents and groups to identify places, and traveled throughout the municipality to locate and evaluate the suggested sites. There is also a history of the settlement of the area.

The list of over 500 potential places of local heritage value will be prioritised in Stage two, and the cultural heritage significance of these individual places and precincts will inform decisions on future heritage planning controls.

A copy of the Study is available to view at the Horsham Branch of the Wimmera Regional Library, and at NC2 (the old Arapiles Shire building) and the Planning Department of Horsham Rural City.
