8 Chaucer Crescent, Canterbury PLANNING PANELS VICTORIA Boroondara Amendment C266 Heritage Overlay HO 700 Griffin Estate & Environs Precinct Subject site: 8 Chaucer Crescent Canterbury Expert Heritage Report Prepared for Max Findlay By Robyn Riddett Director Anthemion Consultancies POB18183 Collins Street East Melbourne 8003 Tel. +61 3 9495 6389 Email: [email protected] April 2018 8 Chaucer Crescent, Canterbury 1.0 Introduction 1. I have been asked by Max Findlay, the owner of the above property, to prepare a statement of expert evidence which addresses the heritage merits relating to the proposed grading of the above s as “Contributory” and its inclusion in a Heritage Overlay i.e. HO 700, Griffin Estate & Environs as a consequence of Amendment C266. Otherwise there is no objection to the application of the Heritage Overlay as proposed. 2. Amendment C264, gazetted on 8 February 2018, introduced interim Heritage Overlays to all affected properties in Canterbury, identified in the adopted Canterbury Heritage Gap Assessment and as recommended in Amendment C266. Amendment C264 has an expiry date of 30 November 2018. Amendment C266 seeks to introduce permanent Heritage Overlays as identified in the Canterbury Heritage Gap Study. 3. I understand that part of the proposed precinct i.e. Chaucer Crescent, was identified in the Draft Canterbury Heritage Gap Study and that a response to the preliminary consultation, Council recommended the “the merging of the Griffin Estate and Chaucer Crescent Precincts to create an expanded precinct known as the Griffin Estate & Environs Residential Precinct;” (Maddocks. Submission. P. 4.) 1.2 Reference Materials 4. I have read: Planning Panels Victoria. Guide to Expert Evidence. Victoria. Department of Environment. Land, Water and Planning.

Submission on behalf of the Planning Authority Amendment C266 to the Boroondara Planning Scheme Council’s submission: Part A. 5 April, 2015. 5. I have perused: City of Boroondara. Amendment C266 - Canterbury Heritage Gap Assessment https://www.boroondara.vic.gov.au/planning-building/planning-scheme-and- amendments/current-planning-scheme-amendments/amendment-c266-canterbury- heritage-gap-assessment (Accessed on 10 April, 2018 and other dates) 6. I have undertaken an inspection of the precinct on two occasions. 1.3 Qualifications and Expertise 7. I am a director of Anthemion Consultancies and am also an architectural historian, an interior designer and a heritage consultant. I am a graduate architect member of the Royal Australian Institute of Architects, was a Deputy Chair of the Institute’s (Victorian Chapter) Heritage Committee and a member of the AIA Awards Jury in the Conservation Section for the years 2000-01. I was at Lovell Chen, architects and heritage consultants for approximately 18 years and most of that time as an associate director. Within that practice and presently my responsibilities include the co-ordination and preparation of conservation management plans, heritage assessments, preparation of expert evidence, development of site interpretation and the restoration of historic interiors. 8. I am also a Past President of Australia ICOMOS (International Council on Monuments and Sites), previously the Secretary, of the ICOMOS International Scientific Committee on Risk Anthemion Consultancies 1 8 Chaucer Crescent, PPV Statement of Evidence Canterbury Preparedness (ICORP) and presently the Treasurer; past Secretary-General of the ICOMOS Scientific Council; inaugural convenor of Blue Shield Australia and past member of the Board, and past Board member of Blue Shield (The Hague) and current Board member (Secretary) of AusHeritage. I am also a member of the Local Government Advisory Committee which is a committee of the Victorian Heritage Council. I have been a heritage adviser in Monash and Bayside and am presently a member of the Yarra Heritage Panel. In the past I have been a long-standing councillor of the National Trust of Australia (Vic.). 9. I have provided expert witness statements on similar matters on numerous occasions at Heritage Victoria, VCAT, the Building Appeals Board, independent panels and other similar forums on behalf of councils, objectors and developers. My Curriculum vitæ is appended. 1.3 Summary of Opinions 10. My primary focus has been on No. 8 Chaucer Crescent and its context and contribution to the precinct. 11. Overall the precinct citation is generally satisfactory in regard to the Victorian and Edwardian buildings but in my opinion it fails to identify adequately or substantiate the reasons as to why the inter-and post-War dwellings make a contribution to the historical and aesthetic significance of the precinct. 12. No. 8 Chaucer Crescent, it is located in part of the street where there is a diminished heritage presence compared with further to the east e.g. from the abutting ROW. It is visually and spatially separated from any Contributory building. 13. The precinct citation correctly notes that “The precinct is particularly rich in Edwardian-era architecture, built between 1903 and 1915”. By way of comparison, in relation to inter-War dwellings the only indication of their significance is outlined in the statement “The precinct was completed during the interwar years, when the remaining pockets in the precinct were developed”. However, there is nothing in the citation which indicates why buildings from the inter-and post-War eras are significant or sets out how they contribute other than filling in the precinct which is overwhelmingly of a different era. 14. While No. 8 Chaucer Crescent is quite visible and distinctively different from all of the dwellings in the precinct it is not a unique example of this type of dwelling. 15. After examining the precinct citation and undertaking a survey on two occasion I am unable to find any justification for the grading of Contributory for No. 8 Chaucer Crescent not can I find any supported reason as to exactly what its contribution to the precinct is beyond the fact that it exists and filled in the precinct. 2.0 My Response to the Proposed Grading of Contributory 2.1 Gradings and Definitions 16. I have considered the merits, or otherwise, of the proposed grading against several criteria which are discussed below. The relevant definitions to consider are: Contributory-‘Contributory’ heritage places contribute to the cultural heritage significance of a precinct. Contributory heritage places are not considered to be individually important places of State, municipal or local cultural heritage significance in their own right, however when combined with other ‘significant’ and/or ‘contributory’ heritage places, they play an integral role in demonstrating the cultural heritage significance of a precinct. Non-contributory-‘Non-contributory’ places are those within a heritage precinct that have no identifiable cultural heritage significance. They are included within a Heritage Overlay because any development of the Anthemion Consultancies 2 8 Chaucer Crescent, PPV Statement of Evidence Canterbury place may impact on the cultural heritage significance of the precinct or adjacent ‘significant’ or ‘contributory’ heritage places 2.2 Contribution of the inter-War Dwellings to the Cultural Heritage Significance of the Griffin Estate & Environs Precinct. Figure 1 Precinct gradings map included in the citation for the Griffin Estate & Environs precinct. 17. The precinct citation draws a distinction between Chaucer Crescent west of Marlowe Street and Chaucer Crescent west of Marlowe Street. In Chaucer Crescent, west of Marlowe Street there are 18 Contributory properties and 10 Non-contributory properties according to the precinct gradings map. 18. The following data highlights the salient points contained within the citation for the Griffin Estate and Environs insofar as Chaucer Crescent is concerned: Address Architectural Date of Other comments comments construction No. 1 Chaucer Building site Under construction Crescent No. 2 Chaucer Edwardian timber 1910 and 1915 Crescent Contributory No. 3/3AChaucer Single storey brick c. 1950s?

I have been instructed by Best Hooper, on behalf of Berjaya Developments Pty Ltd, to prepare expert heritage evidence which addresses the heritage aspects of the proposal to grade the site as “Contibutory”, as a consequence of the Guildford and Hardware Laneways Heritage Study prepared by Lovell Chen in May 2017, as a consequence of Melbourne Planning Scheme Amendment C365. 2. The previous Property Schedule included in the Guildford & Hardware Laneways Precinct Citation graded the building as Contributory. In effect it graded the east wall abutting Niagara Lane but not the façade addressing Little Bourke Street which Lovell Chen had indicated was not of any significance. Subsequently the Amendment C271 Panel recommended that “Chart House” be included within HO1205 with a Non-contributory grading. When HO1205 came into effect on 12 August 2019, No. 372 – 378 Little Bourke Street was included within HO1205 but with a Contributory, rather than with a Non- contributory grading and on an interim basis as a consequence of Amendment C355melb. This change in grading appears to have been influenced by correspondence from Melbourne Heritage Action which put forward new information about “Chart House”. It is now proposed, as a consequence of Amendment C365melb, to include No.

I have been instructed by Rigby Cooke, on behalf of Meydan, to prepare expert heritage evidence which addresses the proposed change to the grading of No. 5 Havelock Street, St Kilda as a consequence of Amendment C161port and the existing grading of No. 9 Havelock Street, St Kilda. In response to the Amendment, Meydan submitted, inter alia, that both places should be removed from the Heritage Overlay i.e. HO5 the St Kilda Hill Precinct, St Kilda. In “Section 3 – Submissions raising objections and requesting changes – submissions all proposed to be included in C161port – Part 2” of Council’s Summary of Submissions and Recommended Responses (pp. 70 – 71) Council’s response to Meydan is viz.: Strategic importance of site Noted. Council officers have previously engaged in conversations with Meydan Group about the potential to redevelop the Cosmopolitan Hotel at this site within the existing planning controls and have provided without prejudice comments on noncompliant proposals. In line with previous advice provided to the Meydan Group, a review of the planning controls and potential contribution of this site to the St Kilda Activity Centre (noting the site is located at the edge of the Acland Street retail strip and is within the General Residential Zone) is outside the scope of this amendment and would be more appropriately explored as part of the development of the St Kilda Activity Centre structure plan.

    Collingwood Historical Society Collingwood Town Hall Tours Sunday 13 July 2014 Figure 1: Rudd, Work in progress c1886, Yarra Libraries Collingwood Town Hall Tours Sunday 13 July 2014 Four tours were conducted at the Collingwood Town Hall Community Open Day on Sunday 13 July 2014 by Anne Holmes, Frances Ilyine and Karen Cummings of the Collingwood Historical Society for the City of Yarra. Stop 1: Introduction, Singleton Stained Glass & Significant People Introduction Let‟s think back to the 1880s: the phrase “Marvellous Melbourne” was coined to describe the city also known as the Metropolis of the Southern Hemisphere. The 1880s was a boom period with land speculation rife and the sounds of building to be heard everywhere. Collingwood might have been a working class and largely industrial suburb, but it was a significant contributor to Victoria‟s economy. It was one of the earliest municipalities, having been established in 1855, and by 1876 its annual income had reached a level high enough for it to merit proclamation as a city. So Collingwood too was participating in the boom, and it was fitting that the foundation stone of its lavish status symbol was laid right in the middle of the decade, in July 1885. This was not achieved without several years of argument about funding and location, and whether such a structure should be built at all. Council finally held a referendum to approve taking out a loan of £40,000, but only £12,000 of this loan would be needed for the town hall, despite its grandeur. This was because a significant portion would be paid for by the Victorian government who would operate a Post and Telegraph Office, and a police station and courthouse within the building.

The Mayor presides over all Council Meetings, and they are conducted in accordance with the City of Yarra Governance Rules 2020 and the Council Meetings Operations Policy. Council meetings are decision-making forums and only Councillors have a formal role. However, Council is committed to transparent governance and to ensuring that any person whose rights will be directly affected by a decision of Council is entitled to communicate their views and have their interests considered before the decision is made. There are two ways you can participate in the meeting. Public Question Time Yarra City Council welcomes questions from members of the community. Ideally, questions should be submitted to Council in writing by midday on the day of the meeting via the form available on our website. Submitting your question in advance helps us to provide a more comprehensive answer. Questions that have been submitted in advance will be answered first. Public question time is an opportunity to ask questions about issues for which you have not been able to gain a satisfactory response on a matter. As such, public question time is not: • a time to make statements or engage in debate with Councillors; • a forum to be used in relation to planning application matters which are required to be submitted and considered as part of the formal planning submission; • a forum for initially raising operational matters, which should be directed to the administration in the first instance.

I have been asked by Doig Architecture, on behalf of Berjaya Developments Pty Ltd, to prepare expert heritage evidence which addresses the heritage aspects of the proposal to include the site in a Heritage Overlay, as a consequence of the Guildford and Hardware Laneways Heritage Study prepared by Lovell Chen in May 2017, as a consequence of Melbourne Planning Scheme Amendment C271. 2.

The background to the client’s objection to the inclusion of No. 372 – 378 Little Bourke Street in a Heritage Overlay is a development proposal for the site which was well-advanced before any exhibition of Amendment C271 and an assessment of the reasons provided in the Guildford & Hardware Laneways Precinct Citation to substantiate significance and inclusion in a Heritage Overlay. In the development proposal No. 372 – 378 Little Bourke Street is proposed to be demolished whereas the façade of No. 15 – 17 Niagara Lane is proposed to be retained and new built form constructed behind and which will rise above at a setback.
