[1/1] English Oaks & Dutch Elms at

Statement of Significance

These trees have been recognised by the National Trust of Australia (Vic) for their age and beauty, judged within the former Pakenham Shire but also have associations with the history of The Grange and its prominent role in the district late last and early this century. The trees in the drive, which are thought to over 100 years old, include eight English oaks and eight Dutch elms, and relate well to the garden and house (see The Grange). The combination of mature elms and oaks is rare.
