Statement of Significance

Bunyip Cemetery is of significance to the Cardinia Shire because it provides good evidence of the growing shire townships and for its associations with the Church of England, Roman Catholic, Methodist, Presbyterian and Independent congregations in the Shire, which all had sections within the property. Bunyip Cemetery has significance for the physical integrity of its gates (part) and store, and for the documentary history provided by its tombstones of notable local families such as the Towts, and Jeffersons.
