Category Description
Municipal Inventory Adopted 18 Mar 1998 Category 4

Category 4

Some heritage value, but not essential to an understanding of the district. Recommend that the place is not included on the Town Planning Scheme at this time. Re-assess the significance of the place when the Inventory is regularly reviewed. Assess in more detail when considering a development application. Record the place prior to redevelopment or demolition. This category is not included in the Town Planning Scheme, and therefore a planning application is not required for proposed development or demolition of the place. Should a building or demolition application be received by Shire, it should be considered on the basis of the recognised heritage value, and the owner offered the same consultation facilities as for the Town Planning Scheme. The places in this category should be reviewed regularly with consideration for inclusion in the Town Planning Scheme.

Statement of Significance

The place demonstrates a way of life and associations with a
pioneer family.

Physical Description

Bush timber construction. The stables have been conserved, and reconstructed,
using mostly original materials. A corrugated iron roof has replaced the original straw roof.

History

Trestrails originally settled in South Australia
in 1846, where they had been copper mining, and came to look for gold in Western Australia in
the 1890s. In 1902, James Trestrail was a registered carrier in Kanowna, and later took up land in
Popanyinning in 1921, only to take up the Karlgarin block in 1922, where his son Jack settled. It
was named "Kybunga", and later changed to "Oakleigh". The owner of the property is Mervyn,
the son of Jack. Mervyn's sons Jamie and Craig also farm the land.
