  • Mundaring with Images
    There’s more to Mundaring! This month’s Feature Blog centres around Mundaring – The Heart of the Perth Hills Mundaring Weir and the No 1 Pump Station is often the first thing that comes to mind when people hear the word Mundaring. Steeped in history and a little bit of controversy, Mundaring Weir is one of Western Australia’s most significant historical sites and the world’s most incredible engineering feats, built by C.Y. O’Connor in the 1890s to pump water from Mundaring to Kalgoorlie, almost 600km away. The No 1 Pump Station, located at the foot of the Weir, now serves as a museum where you can learn more about the project and the life of C.Y. O'Connor. Surrounding Mundaring Weir is the Mundaring Weir Interpretation Precinct, where you can also discover fun facts about the history of the project via signs and sculptures nestled amongst play equipment, picnic tables and barbeques. Starting at the No 1 Pump Station is The Golden Pipeline, a 650km driving adventure that follows what was, at the time of its completion, the longest freshwater water pipeline in the world. Taking three to five days, the trail follows the pipeline taking in historical sites and natural wonders along the way. For those that would like to stay closer to the Weir, we recommend the walking trail between Perth Hills Discovery Centre to Golden View Lookout in Beelu National Park, providing breathtaking views of Mundaring Weir. Other trails in Mundaring include the Railway Reserves Heritage Trail a unique 41km loop entirely on railway formations.

    As this annual report reveals, 2006-07 has been an active year for the Trust during which we have From the Chairman tried to work constructively with various government and non-government authorities and agencies to achieve positive long-term outcomes for the people of Western Australia. David Dolan Chairman Photo: E.Hancock/National Trust Each year, the annual report of the National Trust of Australia (WA) goes to the state parliament because Western Australia is one of several Australian states in which the National Trust operates under an Act of Parliament. This highlights the fact that while the National Trust in WA is a membership-based community organization, it is also a major source of support for the government in meeting the community’s expectations that significant elements of the state’s heritage will be conserved and interpreted for the future. Its large volunteer base, and the Trust’s charitable status with regard to taxation, are two of the reasons why the Trust can facilitate government and community in achieving good heritage outcomes very efficiently and economically. There is also no doubt that operating under its own Act gives the Trust valuable kudos and credibility whilst ensuring the highest standards of governance. At times the Trust may be the vehicle through which members of the public can publicise ideas and arguments which challenge certain policies or proposals of the government or Minister of the day; but the debate that ensues is a healthy aspect of democracy and is evidence that the Trust’s is an independent non-partisan voice informed by many years of experience.

  • Heritage List
    HERITAGE LIST The purpose of this Heritage List is to identify places that are of significant cultural heritage value and worthy of conservation. Modification or additions to a place on the Heritage List will usually require planning approval and may require referral to the State Heritage Office. Place records are available from the State Heritage Office ‘inHerit’ database at www.stateheritage.wa.gov.au There are many places of varying heritage value identified in the Shire’s Municipal Heritage Inventory (MHI). Only places of high significance are included on the Heritage List (e.g. high degree of integrity/authenticity, rare or outstanding example, very important to the history of the locality). The level of significance is one of the matters that the Shire will consider in making a decision on an application for planning approval, or in undertaking work on Shire owned/managed places of heritage value. Refer to the Shire’s Local Planning Scheme No. 4 and Heritage Planning Policy for more information, or contact the Shire’s Planning Service on 9290 6740. The heritage places are listed below in alphabetical order by locality.
