Statement of Significance

Yelland No. 2 is of regional significance. The great size of the sawdust heap gives an indication of the extent of logging in this area in the early century. Established early in the century, technologically innovative, a social centre and a district landmark, this site is of high regional significance in spite of the relatively paucity of surviving relics. (Supple, 1991)
