  • Smythesdale Heritage Precinct Statement of Significance
    GOLDEN PLAINS PLANNING SCHEME Smythesdale Heritage Precinct Statement of Significance Heritage Smythesdale Heritage PS ref no: HO104 Place: precinct What is significant? Smythesdale is located on the Glenelg Highway, about 20 kilometres south-west of Ballarat on generally level ground north-east of the Woady Yalloak River. While gold had been discovered throughout the Woady Yalloak district, it was the rush to Smythe's and Brown's Diggings which established the town of Smythesdale in 1855 and its consolidation as the colonial government's administration. The complex of Courthouse, Police Station and Police Stables, including the trees surviving from the Police Magistrate's garden, is one of the best surviving in the central goldfields. The heyday of the town was in the 1860s and 1870s. The township's street grids show an attempt to control its naturally organic linear form. The main public buildings were always located close to the intersection of Brooke Street and Heales Street. The former di-chromatic brick Post Office, the painted brick Smythesdale Hotel and the rendered Masonic Hall are each important contributors to the streetscape because of their distinctive architecture and historic functions. The retreat house built by the Masons opposite their hall may be the only such example in Victoria. These buildings, while conventional in their form and typical in their style, are more pretentious in their scale than similar buildings in nearby towns. The Mechanic Institute hall survives. One bank and several cottages in clusters survive along the main street. One shop survives but with very low integrity. None of the three churches survives on its original site.

  • Former Police Stables & Lock Up, Smythesdale
    Golden Plains Shire Heritage Assessments for Amendment C53 2012 Former Police Stables & Lock Up, Smythesdale Address: 62 Brooke Street, Smythesdale Construction Date/s: 1859, 1866 Level of Significance: State Heritage Overlay No: HO68 Former Police Stables, Smythesdale Former Lock Up, Smythesdale Statement of Significance1 What is Significant? The former police stables and lock up, 62 Brooke Street, Smythesdale, has significance as rare and predominantly intact surviving examples of a 19th century police infrastructure buildings in the Golden Plains Shire. These buildings, along with the neighbouring court house, represent the only surviving structures of a considerable police complex on the former police reserve from 1859. The stables building was erected at this time and the lock up was built in 1866 at the height of the gold rush in Smythesdale. Both buildings are of standard Public Works Department design, in their gabled roof forms clad in slate, rendered brick wall construction (stables) and bluestone construction (lock up) and associated details. The interiors of the buildings are also predominantly intact. Of particular interest in the stables is the brick floor having the bricks set with their lengths into the ground, as well as the timber screen and cement rendered wall finishes. The interior of the lock up symbolises contemporary 19th century attitudes towards confinement and punishment, in the austere flagstone and timber floors, white washed walls, timber‐lined ceilings, and especially in the solid timber doors (with substantial iron bolts and hinges) and openings with iron security grilles. How is it Significant? The former police stables and lock up at Smythesdale are architecturally, historically and socially significant at the state level.

Phone 53428382 - 7 MAY 2008 5/05/2008 cL -CON As concerned citizens of Smythesdale we were'Considerably upset by me EssenrM Services Commission (ESC) draft decision of 28th March 2008 regarding the Central Highlands Water (CHW) Water Plan. This draft recommends the deferral of Innovative sewerage works for Smythesdale for 2 years. This project has already been delayed because of procrastination by CHW officials. The original timetable expressed by the then Premier Steve Bracks at Smythesdale would have seen the project completed this year. Desire for the project was generated by concerns expressed by the Health Department who recognised an above average number of "gastro" cases in the town, especially amongst school children. Saturation of the soil by septic tank outflow was deemed to be the cause of the problem. Delaying the project is putting the health of children at risk, as evert a mild case of gastroenteritis can increase the chance of irritable bowel syndrome occurring in the patient later on. Other town Improvement programs including a community health centre, streetscaping, and improved stormwater have also been delayed while waiting for final plans of the sewerage project. As advised in a letter from Central Highlands Water dated 24 April 2008 (copy attached) we are pleased to see that ESC is committed to amending the final Plan for Smythesdale to allow for completion of the sewerage project in 2010. We hope that nothing else will be allowed to delay this project as it is already overdue.
