When a building can no longer function with its original use, then proposing a new function is inevitable in order to preserve the significance of the heritage building.
The process of re-purposing the Railway Station and the Railway Goods Shed through the development of an adaptive reuse strategy for both buildings will require consultation with the Shire as well as other stakeholders and extensive community consultation. Consideration of critical elements such as the accessibility and the usability of both places will be required as well as the balance among different and interconnected elements, such as the improvement in materials and resources efficiency, the generation of economic benefits and the enhancement of intrinsic values.
The Shire has contracted Heritage Consultant Laura Gray from Heritage Intelligence to take the journey with us.
