Statement of Significance

"Stanmore" is locally important as the home of the Short family whose decision to sub divide its holdings was linked closely with the profiteering ventures of the directors of the Premier Building Association, leading to the construction of low cost workers housing characteristic of the land boom speculators prior to the bank crash of the early 1890's.
