Statement of Significance

"The Homestead, associated farm buildings and brick kiln at Kendenup have a high degree of cultural significance. It is one of the few complete farm complexes in the region which, through a series of buildings, demonstrates the evolution and expansion of colonial farming activities and reflects the success of a prominent family of the district". The Hassell Family, with patriarch John Hassell, contributed greatly to the development of a successful wool producing farm "Kendenup" until it was sold in 1920. The farm was bought by C J De Garis who attempted a close settlement scheme, subdividing the estate into farm blocks of ten to sixty acres, with provision for a townsite with community services. The venture was not successful, and finally collapsed in 1923, owing to a combination of insufficient financial backing, small demand for the products and bad management. The property was sold. The Hassell property was also associated with a brief gold mining venture in 1874 when the Standard Gold Mining Company set up operations on Kendenup about a mile south of the Hassell homestead. Only ten tons of ore from the mine were crushed before it closed down 1876 without any significant yields recorded. The HCWA has recognised the heritage value of the Hassell Homestead by entering it on the WA Heritage Register. Kalgan Hall has been also extensively evaluated by the National Trust.

Values

 The place is demonstrates the widespread use of timber as a structural material in twentieth century bridge building;
 The place is associated with the growth of regional road infrastructure in the mid twentieth century as road began to replace rail.

Physical Description

Bridge 500, Muir Highway over Kent River, Perillup is a double lane timber, concrete and steel road bridge spanning the Kent River, approximately 45km west-northwest of the town of Mount Barker. The bridge is approximately 44m long, 7.6m wide and sits approximately 1m above the creek bed at its highest point. The bridge consists of 7 spans constructed along a west-northwest to east-southeast axis. The bridge abutments consist of dressed timber planks laid against an earth embankment, which has been further supported by timber logs planted upright against the planks. Some of these upright timber logs have since been replaced by galvanised steel members. The foundation of the abutment further appears to have been modified through the use of concrete blocks on at least one side.

History

In the region around Plantagenet, the Noongar groups known as the Ganeang, Goreng and Minang lived for tens of thousands of years, moving between the coast and inland forests to utilise the natural resources of the area. This way of life began to be disrupted after 1829 with the arrival of colonists, with farmers moving into the Plantagenet area after 1840. A small network of farms and orchards slowly developed over the next few decades, however this growth accelerated after 1890 with the arrival of railway transport and the increased demand for produce arising from the Gold Boom. By the Turn of the century, Plantagenet was a modestly sized but thriving mixed agricultural area.

Statement of Significance

Williams Rest has aesthetic and historical significance It is one of the early buildings in the district, dating back to 1884. Various changes have been made over time, but the original structure is basically intact. It is known as Williams Rest because of its association with the Williams family and the death of young Benjamin Williams, son of John and Susan Williams, the original owners.

History

Originally called "Peerimbup", the property passed to their son Frank and Stella Williams, who continued to tend the orchards. When Frank died in 1963 the property was sold. Mrs Williams died in 1994. .Subsequent owners over the next decade included Bill Bonney. Mr and Mrs Dorling and Garth Roberts. Another phase began in 1972-3 when Donald and Margaret Cooper took over the property. They planted 35 acres of vines and named the property Chateau Barker. It was about the 8th vineyard to be planted in the Great Southern District and a winery was established in 1981. with their son James Cooper as Winemaker. The vineyards produced medal -winning wines at all Australian Royal Shows, and the wines were sold all over Australia and overseas. Another son. David, trained as a cooper, and his skills were used Australia wide. In 1988 the property was sold to Goundrey Wines and was renamed Williams Rest. The house was altered slighty and became a wine-tasting centre. In 1995 the property was sold to Blue Wren Estates Ltd. The new owners have re-established approx 12 ha (30 acres) of vines which are once again productive. Wine is produced under the Williams Rest label, and there are plans to use the house for cellar sales once again.
