Statement of Significance

The Gordon Peg Factory is an example of the various industries that have been established within the Boddington district. This was the only wooden peg industry to ever have existed in Boddington.

Physical Description

Nothing remains of the former peg factory as the land has been cleared for future development.

History

The Gordon Peg factory was originally established in the Ranford area. It later moved to Hotham Avenue. The enterprise was short lived, as local wood was considered unsuitable for peg making.
