Statement of Significance

The Cameron house is historically significant, since it is amongst the oldest surviving farm buildings in the Sunshine area. Camerons' dairy farm, being on land rented from H.V. McKay, became progressively smaller as the surrounding land was sub-divided, but continued to supply milk to local people for some decades.
