Warrandyte Community Centre mural
… Find out more about the Warrandyte Community Centre mural by Angharad Neal-Williams, 2023. Tags Public Art … Warrandyte Community Centre mural …

It was great to get input from a wide range of community members who helped inform the design through the series of workshops.

Common themes that were explored included the river, the natural environment and the experience of walking along and looking across the river to the other side.

The design captures these themes whilst incorporating bright colours that will sit within, and complement the surrounding environment.

 

Location of artwork

  •  Warrandyte Community House - 2 Webb Street Warrandyte, VIC 3113
  •   View on map

 

About the artist

Angharad Neal-Williams is an Illustrator, muralist and graphic recorder based in Melbourne.

Her work combines strong line drawing with controlled colour and shape to create thoughtful, fun and conceptual drawings.

She utilises both digital and traditional mediums to ensure outcomes feel natural and expressive through quirky imperfections in the simple line work. Her style is distinctly optimistic and focuses strongly on the importance of composition and line.

How to build on or renovate your heritage listed property

A heritage overlay may affect any building, renovation or maintenance work on your property. ...

A heritage overlay may affect any building, renovation or maintenance work on your property. The heritage overlay details when you’ll need a planning permit. It also shows the location and the level of heritage controls over a particular heritage place.

You can find out more about the provisions in our planning scheme.

 

Assess the significance of a property

A statement of significance will accompany a heritage assessment and indicate why the site is important and what to conserve. Documenting what’s significant of a place helps to protect and manage the place appropriately.

Proposals for a planning permit for a heritage place needs to consider the policies and provisions of our planning scheme.

 

Check to see if a heritage overlay affects your property

Search to see if a heritage overlay affects your property.

 

When do you need a permit?

When your property has a heritage overlay you’ll need a permit to:

  • subdivide or consolidate land
  • demolish or remove a building (including part of a building)
  • construct a building (including part of a building, or a fence)
  • externally alter a building
  • construct or carry out works
  • construct or display a sign
  • externally paint an unpainted surface (refer to note below)
  • externally paint a building if the painting constitutes an advertisement.

 

When do additional controls apply for the heritage overlay

There’ll be some instances where additional controls will apply, such as:

  • external paint controls
  • internal alteration controls
  • control over trees.

Our schedule to the heritage overlay will identify any additional controls.

 

Making repairs or maintenance on a heritage place

You won’t need a planning permit to carry out routine maintenance and repairs if they don’t change the appearance of the place.

When doing maintenance or repair work, you’ll need to follow the same standards for any:

  • details
  • specifications
  • materials.

If unsure, check with us before doing any repair or maintenance work.

The heritage overlay may not apply to the whole site. Refer to the planning scheme maps online or in our offices.

 

Demolishing a heritage place

We discourage demolition of a heritage place if it’s individually significant or it contributes to the significance of an area. Demolition will only occur if we find the building structurally unsound.

The statement of significance will say why the place is important.

The Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal (VCAT) can review planning permit decisions.

With a vibrant food and art culture with a touch of history, Manningham is a special place to be. Retaining many of its cultural links, there’s something for everyone in Manningham: from sacred sites of the area’s First Peoples to the early gold mining settlements.

Local government

Local government in the area dates back to the election of the Templestowe District Roads Board in 1856. The first meeting of the Board was at Upper Yarra Hotel, Templestowe.

Proclamation that the Shire of Doncaster and Templestowe took place on 28 February 1967. Up until 15 December 1994, Doncaster and Templestowe Council administered the area until the creation of the City of Manningham. The new city included Doncaster, Templestowe and small sections of the Shire of Lilydale. Wonga Park and part of north Ringwood also became part of Manningham. Three State Government appointed commissioners managed the city until 24 march 1997 when 8 councillors were sworn into office.

Our suburbs

Each suburb in Manningham has its own unique characteristics and are wonderful places to live and visit.

""

Bulleen

Bulleen's name is from Bolin Bolin, a Wurundjeri name for a nearby billabong on the Yarra. Dairy farms dominated the area until the 1930s. It remained a rural district until the post war era with a lack of public transport and difficult river crossings delaying development.

Residential subdivision and development gained momentum in the 1950s.

Doncaster

Doncaster's name comes from John Robert Wilson, who opened the Doncaster Arms Inn in 1854 on his way to the Warrandyte gold diggings. Wilson named the inn after his English hometown, Doncaster.

A number of settlements started along the Koonung Creek in the 1850s and the early settlers made a living from timber, but as time passed orcharding became the major local industry.

The Doncaster Shire came into being in 1890.

The area gained a reputation as one of Victoria's best fruit producers and remained a thriving local industry until after WWII. The orchards were progressively subdivided for residential development from the 50s.

Doncaster East

Development in Doncaster East began on the southern part of the suburb in the 1950s and continued into the 1980s. Doncaster East is now an established residential area with a stable population.

Valepark Reserve, Donvale

Donvale and Nunawading

Development in Donvale and Nunawading began in the 1950s. Low density development continued into the 1980s. Both Donvale and Nunawading are now well established residential areas with growing populations.

Fun at the Park Orchards Community House

Park Orchards and Ringwood North

Development of the Park Orchards area began in 1925 when a portion of one of Tom Petty's orchards known as 'the park' became a country club estate after subdivision. Saxil Tuxen, a protégé of Walter Burley Griffin, designed the subdivision drawing inspiration from Griffin's Ranelagh Estate in Mount Eliza.

Pop up Dining set up for Templestowe Village

Templestowe

In the 1850s, Templestowe was as a village on the Yarra on the route to the Warrandyte gold fields. It’s one of the oldest areas of settlement in Manningham. The village remained a relatively small settlement well into the 20th century, with the area outside the town remaining as orchards.

The name Templestowe comes from a mythical place in Sir Walter Scott's novel Ivanhoe.

Front of Aquarena building

Templestowe Lower

The development of Lower Templestowe preceded that of greater Templestowe. The area is predominantly a post-war suburb with substantial development occurring in the 1950s and 1960s.

Two young women walk beside a wide river surrounded by gum trees and shrubs. They are looking at each other and smiling.

Warrandyte and Warrandyte South

Warrandyte is one of the original villages of Manningham. It’s believed that the name Warrandyte is a combination of the Wurundjeri Aboriginal words warran (to throw) and dyte (the object aimed at).

Development began in Warrandyte after the first discovery of gold in Victoria in 1851. Commercial gold mining was undertaken by a number of companies throughout the latter half of the 19th century without the success of the Ballarat and Bendigo diggings.

Located on the beautiful Yarra River, Warrandyte is a thriving residential area and tourist and arts destination. Warrandyte South remains a semi-rural area.

Wonga Park

Wonga Park's name comes from the Wonga Park grazing property. The owner of the property, Simon Wonga was also an elder of the Wurundjeri people.

The area was a mixture of orchards, grazing properties and timbered land. It was part of Mooroolbark until the late 1880s when the property came into the hands of an insurance company and other holdings. The land was then sold by the Wonga Park Land Co.

Four years later when small settlements were a way of relieving unemployment after the failure of the land boom, about 20 members of an Eight Hours Pioneer Memorial Association took up small holdings on a former timber reserve.

Development of the township and surrounds was relatively slow until the 1980s after the release of a number of rural and residential subdivisions.
