Strathbaven Preliminary Heritage Assessment · of House, Outbuildings -,~ • 1 STRATHBAVEN I PRELIMINARY HERITAGE ASSESSMENT · OF HOUSE, OUTBUILDINGS, AND GROUNDS •.. • I ' for Darcy P Smith ·by Dr Robert V J Varman .I Archaeologist & Heritage Consultant. 5 March2003 .I EXECUTIVE SUMMARY • I The principal areas of heritage and archaeological significance were found to be; 1. The extent of the original construction period of the house. The guiding principle is to retain and conserve all original fabric in original locations, even the remnant walls of the original . I' kitchen at the east. end of the house. However, the guidance of an archaeologist or heritage . architect qualified to assess and date building fabric will be required if a·major overhaul is I undertaken to the original portions of the house according to the Heritage Act ofNSW guidelines. The circa 1960s/1970s additions to the house have no heritage value and may be removed or redeveloped as long as the works do not endanger any fabric of the original P'?rtions of the house. ' I 2. Unknown are the locations of privy pits, ash pits, rubbish pits and wells where household rubbish was disposed of. These items were probably located to the east of the house and east end of the property. If any substantial subsurface excavation is required in these areas, the areas I should be monitored by aqualified archaeologist accordi:fig to the guidelines of the Heritage Act ofNSW (1977). ' I 3. If the 'U' -shaped accommodation buildings to the north side of the house are to be demolished, they .should be monitored as demolition proceeds by an archaeologist in case earlier structures have been incorporated in them. A thorough photographic record should be made of these I structures before demolition. 4. A small structure, item D:l9, should be assessed in detail if the area is proposed to be I redeveloped as the frame and perhaps roof appear to predate the surrounding structures . • 5. A structure next .to the main gate, item D:l7, should be assessed in detail, if the area is I proposed to be redeveloped, to detennine if the core may contain the remains of a gatehouse. · • 6. All other above-ground structures were found to have. little value in regard to the principal significance of the site. Reference should be made to the individual items listed in case there is a I specific recommendation in regard to demolition . • I 7. A number of trees were found to have significance to the Warner period of the grounds. 8. Eucalyptus trees along the banks of the Wyong River were found to have high significance in regard to the riparian values of the river. Eucalyptus trees in the north-west comer of the grounds I. and along the north boundary were found to be remnants of the pre-settlement forests. I· I I .. - J ,; - - - - - - - - - ".. ' .... -- ' .

INTRODUCTION I The aim of this report is to provide an assessment of the house, outbuildings and grounds for the purpose of determining the degree of heritage significance and archaeological potential. I The house and grounds do not face neatly to the principle compass points. The front of the house actually faces between the north and the west. Conventional compass indications have been I adopted for this report, conventional north being Boyce Avenue. I SITE LOCATION The house and grounds known as 'Strathaven', formerly 'Hakone', is located at 31 Boyce Avenue, Wyong. The property, described as Lot 42 in DP 551571, is located between Boyce :I Avenue and the north side of the Wyong River, in the part ofWyong east of the railway line. I OWNERSHIP . I The site is in the ownership ofMr Darcy P Smith of34 Toowoon Bay Road, Long Jetty, N.S.W. 2261. I • HERITAGE STATUS-STATUTORY HERITAGE CONTROLS I The site has no existing national or state heritage listing but is subject to local government . ordinances. • I The Heritage Act of New South Wales (1977) has provision for the protection of archaeological deposits or features ('environmental heritage') relating to the European settlement of New South Wales which are fifty years or older. Sections 139- 145 disallow the excavation or removal of I relics or actions likely to endanger relics. I There are other statutory controls: The National Parks and Wildlife Service requires the discovery or suspected discovery of Aboriginal relics should be immediately reported to the Service and to the appropriate local I Aboriginal authority. · The National Trust of Australia (New South Wales) Register has no direct statutory status but the Trust may seek the use of the Heritage Act ofNew South Wales or the planning powers oflocal I government authorities to ensure the protection of classified and recorded listings on its Register. The site has protection under the local government ordinances but it is a requirement for development consent that sites with known heritage potential should be referred to the Heritage I Council ofNew South Wales for assessment • I I I • I • - - - - - - --- - - - - ---• - - I . ·. •' _.,__ --~-- ....... c- ~- --- ~ • "' .. - o_ •• ·.

Warner after whom Warnervale and Warner Avenue were named. 65 • ' • ·----·-~~J I I 5 SITE HISTORY I The Strathavmi property was originally part of the Alison and Wyong Estates. of which Albert Hamlyn Warner purchased some 12,000 acres on or by 20 November 1903. ' I A. H. Warner came from a well-to-do family. His grandfather owned a silk hat factory in England and his father was brought to Australia by John Hordem (Anthony Hordem's fame) as a silk expert. Warner was involved in many undertakings including, a plumbing and gas fitting business by the 1880s and, a lime burning business in St Peters by 1902. He might best be I described as an investor .. He was a contractor and had a block of six shops built in Oxford Street Sydney which he leased out to tenants. He also purchased a string of21 bakeries (Shadier's). Warner had interests in land subdivisions at Bondi, Camden and later the Wyong area. He lived at I several prestigious addresses around Sydney over the years such as 'Rockleigh'. at Point Piper and 'Leffington' at Grosvenor Street, Woollahra. He built 'St Ithome' a mansion at Point Piper for his ·family residence, replete with coachhouse, servants' quarters, salt water swimming baths and a I tennis court. The residence included a ballroom with three reception rooms displaying oriental works of art which Warner had collected on his travels to Japan, China and the Far Eastin general. His interest in the Orient had significance in the development of the Wyong property. I . Warner's serious interest in the Wyong area commenced with the purchase of vast tracts of land around Wyong and Warnervale. He spent weekends at Wyong and gradually spent more and . 1· .. more time in the area, at first living at 'The Camp' in Warner Avenue. Warner decided to build himself a permanent home at Wyong, 'sell his Point Piper mansion and I shift with his family to his newly constructed residence around 1913, a year before World War I. The house was constructed as a private residence during the years 1912-1913 on the north side of a picturesque bend on the Wyong River. Warner, influenced by Japanese art and architecture, I. nanied his new mansion 'Hakone' after a park that greatly impressed him on one of his Japanese visits. The interplay of roof lines and the appearance of a pagoda-like central widows ' walk are reminiscent of Japanese architecture but also fall within the idiom of the (then) current Federation I style of architecture. · Interestingly,

  • The Corridor's Strengths
    The Corridor’s strengths Wyong – a Town Centre with “good bones” Wyong Town Centre has many elements of a great regional centre, including an established fine grain street network with connections to a train station, Wyong River and open spaces. Home to the landmark Art House cultural facility, Council chambers and government agencies, Wyong is the cultural and civic Wyong River – a natural centrepiece core of the corridor. The character of Wyong Town Wyong River flows through the heart of the corridor, presenting as Centre is strengthened by a distinct heritage presence a natural centrepiece. Although access is constrained in some areas, and fine grain built form that line the high streets. the River is a significant asset, supporting an array of recreational activities including kayaking and fishing, as well as walking and cycle along the active transport links by the river foreshore. The River provides an important natural outlook for the surrounding urban Alison Street, Wyong areas. Tuggerah Lake, State Conservation Area (image: itsonlymylife163. blogspot) Natural Assets of Environmental Value The corridor is endowed with natural bushland precincts that provide environmental amenity to residents, workers and visitors. Tuggerah Nature Reserve features predominately untouched Wyong River from the Wyong Milk Factory bushlands and wetlands that have high conservation value, while the nearby Tuggerah State Conservation Area supports sustainable visitation and bushwalking. 26 DRAFT Tuggerah to Wyong Corridor Strategy Great local food, drink, arts and craft The Corridor features a growing number of exciting food, beverage, arts and craft offerings, building on growing interest in local and boutique products. There is a combination of restaurants, cafés, markets, function spaces and specialty stores in the area.

  • Settlement of the Tuggerah Lakes
    Settlement of the Tuggerah Lakes The ecological history of the Tuggerah Lakes over the last 200 years is closely linked to the pattern of European settlement both around the lakes and within the upper catchment. As settlement spread throughout the district, activities such as the clearing of land, logging, fishing and urban development have all had impacts on the ecology of the lakes. To understand when each of these impacts occurred, the settlement of the Tuggerah Lakes and its catchment has been divided into four broad time periods. These are; • Aboriginal settlement • The first European settlers (1820s – 1870s) • Settlement after the opening of the railway (1880s – 1950s) • Urban Development (1960s – 1990s) Historical documents which provide an insight into the rates of settlement and associated activities during each of these time periods, are presented in the following sections. Table 1 provides a summary of some key dates in the development of the region. Table 1. Significant events in the development of the Tuggerah Lakes and its catchment Date Activity 1825 First settlers arrived. Early 1830s Logging commenced in the upper catchment, principally for cedar. Early 1830s Felton Mathews surveyed the district. 1832 The Great North Road was opened, principally as a means of providing access to the Hunter District from Sydney. There were two branches from this road into Wyong. 1830s Cabbage Tree Harbour provided a shipping point for cedar from the 1830s onwards. Gosford was another such departure point. Early1850s Hargraves residence at Noraville constructed using cedar from the valleys behind Wyong. 1854 Jane Taylor acquired all the land of what is now The Entrance.

  • 2. the Structure of the Current Central Coast Water Supply System
    2. The structure of the current Central Coast water supply system Gosford City and Wyong Shire Councils share a joint water supply scheme administered by the Gosford/Wyong Council’s Water Authority. This is the third largest water supply system in NSW (see Figure 1). Figure 1: The Current Central Coast Water Supply System (Source: Gosford Wyong Councils’ Water Authority http://www.gwcwater.nsw.gov.au/index.php/our-system) Water is drawn from four streams (Mangrove and Mooney Creeks in Gosford and Wyong River and Ourimbah Creek in Wyong). The building of water storage infrastructure was begun 75 years ago, but most infrastructure in use today was completed during the past thirty years. Currently, the system incorporates three dams, three weirs, two treatment plants, 40 reservoirs, and 1900 km of pipelines. It has a total catchment area of about 700 square kilometres. Water is drawn from Mooney Dam and weir pools on Wyong River, Mangrove Creek and Ourimbah Creek. Wyong River and Ourimbah Creek extractions are stored in Mardi Dam. During dry periods, when the Coastal Mooney and Mardi Dams cannot meet the demand for water, supply can be released from Mangrove Creek Dam to provide adequate inflows at the weirs on Mangrove Creek and Wyong River. A key new element in WaterPlan 2050 (the long term water supply strategy for the Central Coast) is the Mardi-Mangrove Link Project. This will consist of a new 19 kilometre buried water pipeline from Mardi Dam to the existing Boomerang Creek tunnel at Mangrove Creek Dam together with supporting infrastructure. Construction of the pipeline will commence in early 2010 and will secure the region’s town water supply over the next four decades.

  • Warnervale Link Road Community Consultation Summary November 2017 - February 2018 Roads and Maritime Services | June 2018
    Warnervale Link Road Community Consultation Summary November 2017 - February 2018 Roads and Maritime Services | June 2018 THIS PAGE LEFT INTENTIONALLY BLANK Executive Summary The Central Coast Regional Plan 2036 identifies Warnervale as a regional growth centre. It is anticipated there will be about 75,500 additional people living in the area by 2036, as well as new employment lands being provided. The link road would provide the community with improved connectivity and traffic benefits as the population of the area continues to grow. The Warnervale Link Road was originally proposed by Central Coast Council to link the residential growth area of Warnervale to the administrative and commercial precincts of Wyong and Tuggerah. Roads and Maritime Services is continuing those investigations started by Central Coast Council to consider its feasibility, develop the road corridor and start planning for the future link. The Warnervale Link Road would be a 2.3-kilometre two lane road linking the Pacific Highway and Britannia Drive at Watanobbi to Albert Warner Drive at Warnervale. The proposal also includes upgrading the Pacific Highway to two lanes in each direction between Cutler Drive and Amy Close at North Wyong. This Community Consultation Summary provides an overview of the consultation carried out by Roads and Maritime on the strategic design of the proposed Warnervale Link Road between November 2017 and February 2018. It also summarises all feedback received and provides responses to all issues raised by the community and stakeholders. During the consultation period Roads and Maritime received 50 submissions. Key issues raised by the community included: • comments on design • traffic management (access, congestion and safety) • property impact (access, future property values, acquisition and compensation) • business impact (compensation for loss of business and/or business disturbance and impact on future plans/future land use).

  • Tuggerah Lakes Estuary Modelling K
    Tuggerah Lakes Estuary Modelling K. Brennan, B. Sanderson, A. Ferguson, T. Weber & S. Claus Final Report Contract Number: CPA/157279 Grantee: Department of Environment, Climate Change and Water Reporting Period: 01 August 2009 – 29 July 2010 Executive Summary Tuggerah Lakes is a coastal lagoon system consisting of three shallow interconnecting lagoons. From north to south the lakes are Lake Munmorah, Budgewoi Lake and Tuggerah Lake with Tuggerah Lake having the only connection with the ocean at The Entrance. The lakes are fed by four major tributaries – Wyong River and Ourimbah, Wallarah and Tumbi creeks. The catchment has undergone substantial urban development and shoreline alterations over past century which have changed the ecological components and processes within the estuary. There is a potential risk in deterioration of the health of the lakes if catchment runoff exceeds the buffering capabilities of the ecosystem. The NSW Department of Environment, Climate Change and Water (DECCW) have been subcontracted by Wyong Shire Council to fulfil some of the knowledge gaps in the Estuary Management Plan and to identify potential risks within the catchment. A series of integrated catchment, hydrodynamic and estuary response models have been developed to represent the Tuggerah Lakes catchment. These models simulate the processes occurring within the system to predict nutrient and sediment loads entering the lakes and the likely effect these loads have on the ecosystem. Catchment modelling suggests that the larger rural subcatchments deliver the largest amount of nutrients and sediments per year and dominate the loading in the lakes. The fringing lake catchments are highly developed and contribute frequent and concentrated flows.

    CASE STUDY: Responding to a Natural Disaster The Worst in Nature - The Best in Us Responding to a Natural Disaster AAP Breaking News 2007, June 09, 01: 52 am NSW Premier declares natural disaster: NSW Premier Morris Iemma has declared a "natural disaster" for the Hunter and Central Coast regions after severe storms over the past 24 hours caused widespread damage. Mr Iemma said the declaration of a natural disaster area triggered a range of assistance for individual residents, business owners and councils whose properties have been damaged by the strong winds, rain and flooding …… Plate 1: Flash flooding, Newcastle West Plate 2: SES taking people to safety, Plate 3: Flooding of residential areas (ABC, Janek ) Wyong (SES) Chittaway (SES) CENTRAL COAST NSW, JUNE 2007. Where were you on Friday 8th June 2007? Were you caught in the gale force winds and torrential rainfall that struck coastal New South Wales on that Friday afternoon? When did you first become aware that the storm damage and floods were of such intensity that only the formal declaration of a “natural disaster” would be adequate to deal with the consequences of this surprise weather event? CASE STUDY In this Case Study of a Natural Disaster we seek to answer the following questions: How do we as a community research natural disasters? How do we plan for them? How do we respond to them? We will mainly be concerned with analysing the events of June 2007 as an example of a relatively extreme, damaging weather event, related to the mechanisms of the global water cycle, and requiring both immediate short term responses as well as long-term planning.

Appendix 2 Wyong Shire Council Business Papers Confidential Session of the Ordinary Council Meeting October 2015 Appendix 3 Letters and submissions to NSW Government Page 2 29/03/2016 Executive Summary Airport Process to date A Warnervale Airport is not viable, desirable or necessary. It does not comply with the goals of the Central Coast Regional Plan and should not be included in the Plan. In 2012 the Sydney Second Airport needs study included an airport at Wallarah in the 17 sites studied. In December 2012, Wyong Shire Council included a variation of the Wallarah Type 3 2,600m airport in their LEP. There was essentially no community consultation on the issue and a series of confused messages from Wyong Mayor Eaton as to what size airport Council intended. It was found through GIPA applications that Council secretly planned to host Sydney’s Second Airport. Following submissions from the community, Council’s 2,600m Airport was excluded from the final LEP. Regional Plan Goals Warnervale Airport does not comply with the goals of the Regional Plan. • Goal 1: Enhance community lifestyles and accelerate housing supply. Warnervale Airport is incompatible with this goal as it adversely affects community lifestyles and makes living in surrounding areas undesirable.

  • Consultation Report: Lets Talk Northern Lakes
    Let’s talk Northern Lakes (including San Remo -Budgewoi and Toukley) Lake Munmorah Structure Plan CONSULTATION REPORT January 2020 BLANK PAGE Executive Summary Over a number of years Central Coast Council has been developing the Draft Greater Lake Munmorah Structure Plan. The plan sets a coherent framework for development, facilitating the future growth and prosperity of the area. The draft structure plan was placed on public exhibition from 28 March to 26 May 2019. In addition to the exhibition of the Draft Structure Plan, Council sought community feedback on the Northern Lakes, San Remo-Budgewoi and Toukley planning area as part of a broader campaign Let’s Talk Northern Lakes. The Let’s Talk Northern Lakes (including San Remo-Budgewoi and Toukley) campaign was designed to provide access for the community to discuss local matters with their local Council staff and for local Council staff to speak directly to the community they are serving. 125 stakeholders sent us 241 formal (written) submissions and comments throughout the campaign. From these, 92 related to the Draft Greater Lake Munmorah Structure Plan (GLMSP) and the other 149 related to feedback about the Northern Lakes, San Remo-Budgewoi and Toukley planning area. Over 160 community members attended two drop-in information sessions. The key themes raised in comments throughout consultation covered: • The need to protect the natural and environmental assets in the area • Requests for further pathways in the area • Maintenance and protection for the lakes and waterways. Many written submissions contained multiple issues or comments. We have grouped these comments into themes and provided responses to issues raised in this report.
