Contribution to landscape. An impressive avenue of 118 trees, located between Estcourt and Lyons Streets. Located on the Princes Highway the trees are an important planting in the township, aided by the trees' even spacing and size. A photograph of High Street in 1888 show the trees approximately 10 years old. This avenue is possibly the oldest intact avenue planting in Victoria. Measurements: 04/1987 Access: Unrestricted
Aesthetic significance
This planting represents an early fashion in street tree planting in the 1870s-1880s of deciduous trees rather than fast-growing conifers and Blue Gums.
A carpark has placed some trees under stress and there is a conflict with powerlines.
