Statement of Significance
Camperdown railway station is of archaeological significance as the
potential remains at this site could provide information about the
layout of the station complex, and the purpose of the former buildings
of unknown function. Archaeological features and deposits have the
potential to provide information about how the former buildings and
structures were associated with both each other and the extant
features, and their importance within the railway station complex. The Camperdown railway station site is assessed as having
archaeological value in a local context under the 'linking Victorians
by rail' and 'building Victoria's industries and workforce' framework
in Victoria's Framework of Historical Themes (Heritage Council
of Victoria 2010). As such, the Camperdown railway station site meets
the Threshold B (place history).
