The Governors who administered the Colony before the answer was found in wool encouraged investigations and experiments which might praise a supply of plant fibre, de-stuffs, tannin, gum 384 or timber. In the best Antipodean tradition, one of the earliest and most industrious botanical exeerimentalists was a convict, John 385 Hutchison, who in 1810 announced from a Portsmouth hulk that "experiments perfo red under a multitude of inconveniences not to be removed in a :lace of this description", had shown "Botany Bay Oak" to 386 be "one of the most valuable woods in the British Empire".

Assessor's Summary of Significance: Old Government House and the Government Domain (also known as the Governor’s Domain) at Parramatta Park are primary sites associated with the foundation of British colonial settlement and provide a tangible link to Australia's colonial development of 1788. Convicts built many of the structures in the place and were the labour force which operated the farming and other enterprises that occurred there. The house itself and the surrounding historic elements such as the bathhouse, carriageways and gatehouses, and the remains of Governor Brisbane’s observatory, all reflect the establishment of agricultural production, the administration of the colony, the administration of the convict system in Australia, the commencement of town planning, and the site of some of Australia’s earliest astronomical and botanical endeavours.

The site is located within the Parramatta City Centre and adjoins a State Heritage Item, ‘Harrisford’ and the Parramatta River Parkland. The report based on an inspection of the site and an analysis of the context identifies heritage constraints that would affect proposed development of the site and any mitigation that might be adopted to limit adverse impacts. The Planning Proposal is to amend Parramatta City Centre LEP 2007 provisions for the Height of Buildings and the allowances for Floor Space Ratio on the subject site. A development consent for the site (DA769/2011) has previously been granted in 2013 by Council and preliminary discussions with the Council’s urban design specialist has indicated that an ‘angular setback’ to the adjoining heritage item would be supported.

  • News from the Interior”: What Can We Tell from Plant Microfossils Preserved on Historical Archaeological Sites in Colonial Parramatta?
    AUSTRALASIAN HISTORICAL ARCHAEOLOGY, 26, 2008 “News from the Interior”: what can we tell from plant microfossils preserved on historical archaeological sites in colonial Parramatta? MIKE MACPHAIL AND Mary CASEY Parramatta’s relative freedom from high-rise developments has allowed the archaeological footprint of its early colonial past to survive below many of the late nineteenth and earlier twentieth buildings lining the principal thoroughfares such as George, Charles, Church, Marsden, O’Connell, Phillip and Smith Streets. Since 1990, 11 historical archaeological sites including the important Parramatta colonial hospital site have been analysed for fossil pollen, spores and other plant microfossils (>160 samples). Archaeological contexts range from late eighteenth-century soils and postholes on sites occupied by convicts, to nineteenth- century cesspits, drains, wells and waterholes on sites occupied by emancipated (freed) convicts and free settlers. Not all contexts preserve in situ organic remains but plant microfossils unearthed to date archive the clearing of native sclerophyll vegetation from the river terrace on which Parramatta has been built; some of the edible plants grown, stored and eaten by convicts and free settlers; grazing; the use of the Parramatta River and its floodplain as a source of domestic water and sediment to level building sites; the local extinction of at least one native aquatic herb; and the progressive spread of exotic weeds due to dumping of domestic waste around public and residential sites. One palynomorph, which has proved useful in identifying contexts associated with human sewage in Parramatta and Sydney, is formerly described and illustrated (Cloacasporites sp.). INTRODUCTION Unlike Sydney’s CBD, Parramatta has undergone limited urban expansion during the mid to late twentieth century due to Parramatta is Australia’s third settlement after Sydney and Norfolk Island.
