Statement of Significance

What is significant?
The site has moderate potential to contain historical archaeological features, deposits and/or artefacts which relate to the earlier land use as a recreational community space (1885-present), an evolving produce market and cattle yard (1895-1930s) and for commercial/residential purposes (1930s-present).

The site is of local historical significance as being representative of the commercial, residential and recreational development of the Box Hill city centre from a regional centre in the early 20th century to a suburb of Melbourne by the late 20th century.
