Half an acre of orchard land was donated by a local farmer, Mr Hornidge, as the site for a new church. The foundation stone for the Holy Trinity Anglican Church was laid on 9 December 1914 by Bishop J D Langley. Designed by architect, Mr Richardson, the builder was M A Miles of Tatura. Brick paving was laid around the outside of the church after its completion by Reverend J A Rowell and members of the congregation. Description Holy Trinity Anglican Church, Lenne Road, Ardmona, is a small red face brick building comprising porch, nave, sanctuary and vestry with parapeted gabled roofs clad with corrugated galvanised steel. The parapets are finished with rendered copings and cross finials and the main gable end contains a small oculus window. The central projecting porch contains a pair of pointed arch side entrances with V- jointed board timber doors and a single lancet opening in the end wall. The buttressed side elevations contain regular fenestration with the exception of the north side which also contains a pair of timber doors. The sanctuary window comprises a group of 3 lancet openings. All windows contain timber- framed fixed sash windows with diapered leadlight glazing. The area surrounding the church is paved with red bricks (1915) and includes numerous mature Canary Island date palms (Phoenix canariensis) and Pepper trees (Schinus molle). Thematic Context Thematic Environmental History 10.0 Worshipping Australian Heritage Commission 8.6 Worshipping 9.7 Mourning the dead Significance Holy Trinity Anglican Church, Ardmona, is of local historical, social and aesthetic significance. Constructed in 1914, the church has served as a place of worship for the district’s Anglicans for almost 90 years. Aesthetically, it is a substantially intact example of a simple rural brick church, of which there are numerous examples in the municipality. References W H Bossence, Tatura and the Shire of Rodney, pp 48-50. Recommendations • Retain original unpainted finish to brickwork and otherwise investigate original external paint colours when due for a repaint • Repair damaged brickwork and repoint • Retain brick paving and landscape setting including mature specimen trees • It is desirable, from a heritage perspective, that the building retain its public/community function • Should toilets be required they should be sited at the rear and not visible from the road.

In 1930 work commenced on the new Scots Church in Lenne Road. Constructed of concrete, it was built at a cost of £1, 121. It was opened on 16 May that year by Mr John Allan, MLA. In the early years the church was a hive of activity, and was the focus of such groups as the church choir, Ladies’ Guild and League of Worship. The number of parishioners began to decline after World War Two and it became difficult to keep the church viable. Services ceased in 1985, and the church was converted to a private residence. Description The former Scots Church, Lenne Road, Ardmona is a rendered concrete building on a T-shaped plan comprising a porch, nave, sanctuary and vestry. Each section has a gabled roof clad with corrugated galvanised steel and gable end finished with strapped cement sheet and timber fretwork. The central projecting porch contains a pair of timber doors and a pointed arch timber-framed double-hung sash window to each side. The buttressed side walls contain regular timber-framed double-hung sash windows with leadlight glazing. A recent timber-framed gabled canopy has been added to the west porch. The side and rear boundaries are defined by a recent steel fence and the landscaped surrounds include mature Canary Island date palms (Phoenix canariensis). The rear yard contains a recent prefabricated steel shed. Thematic Context Thematic Environmental History 10.0 Worshipping Australian Heritage Commission 8.6 Worshipping 9.7 Mourning the dead Significance The former Scots Church, Lenne Road, Ardmona is of local historic, social and aesthetic significance. Constructed in 1930, the church served as a place of worship for the district’s Presbyterians for 55 years, although it no longer serves this purpose. Aesthetically, it is a reasonably intact and interesting example of a rural church constructed of concrete, of which there are no other known examples in the municipality. References W H Bossence, Tatura and the Shire of Rodney. The Historical Society of Mooroopna Inc, Mooroopna to 1988, pp. 59-60. Recommendations • Investigate original external paint colours when due for a repaint • Preferably remove later timber-framed addition to west porch • Retain mature specimen trees • Any additional external structures should be located at the rear of the building and be visible from the road.

Existing Existing Recommended VHR RNE Planning Scheme 9 National Trust (Vic) Allom Lovell & Associates 11 History Spurred on by a book published in England by the Chaffey brothers, who had established irrigation in the Mildura area, two families emigrated from England to Victoria. Settling first in Mildura, H E Pickworth and the Turnbull brothers were disappointed by the early plantings of vines, as well as the difficulty of transportation from Mildura, and soon moved to the Goulburn Valley. The Pickworth and Turnbull families settled at Ardmona in 1892 and immediately bought 57 acres of land from George Pagan, one of the original settlers. The pair of Norfolk Island pines (Araucaria heterophylla) were probably planted soon after their arrival in Ardmona. Anecdotal evidence suggests that the trees were originally planted to divide the land between the two families, and a laneway still exists between the pines. Description Pair of mature Norfolk Island pines (Araucaria Heterophylla) flanking a dirt driveway off Lenne Road, Ardmona. Thematic Context Thematic Environmental History 4.2 Selectors and Closer Settlement Australian Heritage Commission 2.5 Promoting settlement on the land through selection Significance The pair of mature Norfolk Island pines (Araucaria Heterophylla), Lenne Road, Ardmona, are of local historical and aesthetic significance. Of approximately 100 years old, they provide a distinctive landmark of the township of Ardmona, which is otherwise hidden by the surrounding orchards. The trees mark the boundaries of the land selected by two families of English immigrants who chose the Ardmona area to grow fruit. References W H Bossence. Tatura And the Shire of Rodney, p. 53 Recommendations • The trees should be assessed on a 1 to 2 year basis by a qualified arborist • Should they require removal when they become senescent, they should be replaced with a similar species.

The land on which this house now stands was originally Allotment 72b, in the Parish of Toolamba, (1946). The 238 acres of Crown land was first owned by Thomas Alexander, a farmer of Toolamba, in 1882.

  • Archaeology of the Old Iceworks, 35 Hunter Street, Hobart
    Papers and Proceedings of the Royal Society of Tasmania, Volume 123, 19R9 27 ARCHAEOLOGY OF THE OLD ICEWORKS, 35 HUNTER STREET, HOBART by Angela McGowan (with one tabie, one text-figure and four plates) McGOWAN, A.E., 1989 (31 :x): Archaeology of the Old lceworks, 35 Hunter Street, Hobart. Pap. Proc. R. Soc. Tasm. 123: 27-36. https://doi.org/10.26749/rstpp.123.27 ISSN 0080-4703. Department of Lands. Parks and Wildlife, GPO Box 44A, Hobart, Tasmania, Australia 7001; formerly Anthropology Department, Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery. The invention and development of refrigeration technology in the second half of the 19th century was a crucial factor in the success of Australia's meat export trade, although in Tasmania it was the fruit trade which made the most use of it. The Henry Jones Iceworks and cold-storage facility at 35 Hunter Street, Hobart, was probably established in 1903, involving extensive alterations to the existing building. Six of the seven insulated rooms in the building still contained refrigerant piping in 1986. This represented about one-twentieth of the volume of the original facility and was mostly used for cold storage. However, there is also evidence that most, if not all of the firm's ice-making took place on this site. The "Old Iceworks" was an important component of the industrial and commercial development of Hobart. Its remains were representative of refrigerating technology and equipment found throughout Australia in the early 20th century and were the last surviving ammonia iceworks in Tasmania. Key Words: ice-making, cold storage, historical archaeology, Hobart, Tasmania.
