Statement of Significance

The pine is significant locally for the rarity of the type and maturity, judged within the district, and its symbolism of an earlier garden connected with a simple weekender used by the journalist, Luke, and hence supporting one of the common early house types in the Upper Beaconsfield area. The pine also has secondary associations with Buchanan who was well known in Gippsland over a long period.
