Statement of Significance

Salvation Army Commandant's and Nurses Barracks are significant to Cardinia Shire as the only buildings left from the former farm colony for the unemployed established in the Shire by the Salvation Army in the 1890s depression years. The buildings have historical significance as rare survivors of the labour colonies for the unemployed established in many parts of Victoria at the time. There is sufficient documentary evidence in Salvation Army records to interpret the site historically and allow further investigation of the former tramline and the mill sites.
