Why is it significant?
Quarry Hill, because of its hilly terrain, high percentage of Edwardian and late Victorian-era housing and its proximity to major cultural sites such as the Bendigo Cemetery, has both a strong period character expressed its housing and picturesque views to and from the housing stock which enhances its sense of place. It also is a setting for individually significant sites such as the Eyrie which epitomizes the type of housing and the superb effects gained by siting against landscaped hillsides.
