  • 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.
