Statement of Significance

These gardens have high local significance as the site of the pioneer Range View Nurseries, one of the first in the area, run by the Woolrich family from 1917. The Cloudehill Garden and the Kejoma garden, each established on five acres of the original Woolrich property, are associated with Olinda's change during the inter-war years from a berry-growing to a flower-growing district. Ted Woolrich's old timber house remains at Kejoma.
