Constructed from 1860
The place is an important individual visual component of a group of heritage places in the historic town of Guildford; The place is a comparatively rare and relatively intact example of a late nineteenth century workers cottage in Guildford, demonstrating the nature and quality of worker and investment housing and the standard of living possible for working class families of this time; The place was part of the residential subdivision and development of Guildford in the 1870s and 1880s, with Scott Street, created in 1880, being one of the first three streets to expand Guildford from the original 1829 gazettal; the place is a surviving example of a working class residence within Guildford, illustrating the character of the development of the town which coincided with the opening of the Eastern Railway in 1881, marking a change in the nature and structure of the heart of Guildford, both by physically dividing the town and by facilitating the efficient movement of goods and passengers to Fremantle and regional areas; The place retains many of its original characteristics including those of simplicity and symmetry which were evident in residential development of the late nineteenth century; and The place formed part of a subdivision closely associated with noteworthy Guildford citizens and developers of the day, including the Wellman family, who built the house in c1887, and the Hyde family, who occupied the house from 1903 to 1975.
Brick and iron cottage with hipped roof which extends across the front verandah. The original Flemish Bond brickwork has been rendered. Original 12 pane sash windows. Internally the cottage has basic floor plan of four interconnecting rooms with fireplace in each and original 7 inch boards. Additions to rear of the cottage have taken place but these do not intrude visually.
Building pre-dates establishment of Scott Street as a public road in 1880s and was probably the home of labourers on surrounding farm land (also No. 5).

Constructed from 1841 to 1938
The place contains elements of one of the oldest church buildings in Western Australia; The place is associated with European settlers of the Swan Valley; The place is closely associated with James Stirling's first exploration of the Swan River; The place is a fine example of the Old Colonial Gothic Picturesque style; The place is important as an example of structures that were typical of the local architecture built by European settlers between 1829 and 1849 that replicated their way of life in Britain. The adjacent residence and cloister have been assessed as having little significance.

The grounds of the church display original features including original roof timbers and pews which add to the historical interest.

Constructed from 1835
The place is a rare example of a house constructed in the first six years of the Swan River Colony. The setting of the place is enhanced by the retention of some of the original garden; The place demonstrates aspects of the European settlement of the Swan District for agricultural purposes, and has potential to yield information regarding the way of life of colonists in the Swan River Colony; and The place has a close association with the Haddrill family, who lived there from 1835 to 1975.
Earliest part is of brick and consists of three interconnected rooms, none of which were ceiled. Roof originally thatched, now corrugated iron. It has an attractive garden setting (recently improved) and has the advantage of being sited away from unsympathetic modern structures. Also contains graves of Haddrill children, next to Susannah Smithers' grave.
Haddrill bought his 20 acre lot in 1833 and probably built the house shortly afterwards. It was occupied by Haddrill descendants until 1975.

The stables have received reasonable maintenance and much of it has been sympathetic, with the use of recycled materials from demolished structures to repair the stables structure. Render applied to the lower and interior walls as a repair strategy has obscured some original fabric. Overall the stables are in fair condition. The drying shed has been extended and modified to suit changing farm practices, and in the process the shed has received sufficient maintenance to ensure its stability. Construction details such as the drying racks have been removed to suit the alternative uses such as storage of farm machinery and general storage. However, the structure itself is in fair condition.

Very significant as one of few remaining handmade brick farm structures in the Swan Valley. Significance has been increased by authenticity, integrity and condition of the building.
Single-storey brick and iron stable building with timber horse stalls and internal floor and partitions intact. Floor at one end has been concreted. Building has been cement rendered to dado height externally.
Spring Park was one of the first rural land grants in 1829, and has been associated with every significant phase of agricultural development in the Swan district since that period, in particular early rural development for mixed farming, and the development of the viticulture in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

Spring Park, comprising archaeological sites (from 1830s), Susannah Smithers’ grave (1839, c.1910), a five-stall stable and tack room (mid 1850s) constructed in brickwork, with an iron roof, together with a timber and iron construction fruit drying shed (pre 1920), has cultural heritage significance for the following reasons: The place was part of one of the first rural land grants in 1829, and has been associated with every significant phase of agricultural development in the Swan district since that period into the late 20th century; Archaeological sites at the place have a capacity to contribute to a wider understanding of the cultural history of the Swan district and of the State as a research site, a possible teaching site and benchmark site that includes material from the earliest years of European settlement in the Swan River Colony; The stables building is very fine example of a simple Victorian Georgian style farm building, and contains a rare example of timber cheese block flooring; The grave stone is among the earliest rural memorials in the State, of which few remain in their original locations and the drying shed is a good example of a simple vernacular farm structure and one of a diminishing number of places of its type in Western Australia; and For more than a century the place was associated with the Minchin family, who were among the earliest European settlers in the Swan district. A house built in the 1970s, and the metal framed and clad sheds from the post World War II period were not assessed in detail and are considered to have little significance. The timber framed and metal-clad Laundry and brick Water Closet are of little significance.

The Archaeological Sites provide physical evidence of the earliest period of European agricultural development in Western Australia, as it is part of a portion of Swan Location E1, one of the first rural grants made in the Swan River Colony; The house is a simply designed, well proportioned single storey adobé and corrugated iron roof construction in the Victorian Georgian vernacular style set in a culturally modified riverside setting; and The place was owned by what were regarded as, in the nineteenth century, a labouring family, who became successful landowners in the Swan District. The modern 1970s residence located to the north of the c.1850 house, sheds located to the south of it, fences, miniature bridge, paving surfaces, arbors, and recent plantings, have little cultural heritage significance.
Edwards House is a single-storey adobe and corrugated iron roof building, in the vernacular with elements of Victorian Georgian style, together with archaeological sites dating from the 1830s in a landscaped riverside garden setting. The residence has steeply pitched roof. There have been numerous alterations including fibro infill to verandahs, concrete to verandah, floor, replacement of doors and windows. Internal room layout largely intact.
Believed to have been the home of Richard Edwards, manager of Henley Park who built the first homestead at Henley Park c.1830s.

The 1844 bridge pylon remains at Oakover are in poor condition and have deteriorated in the last decade. However, the bridge’s mound and the other archaeological sites are presently not under threat, and their good condition will not alter if land uses remain unchanged. Oakover’s non-invasive past activities proposes that much undisturbed archaeological material is still present. There are no programmes planned to test the area’s archaeological potential. Overall, Oakover is in good condition. As the property is still a working farm, the priority for maintenance of the farm improvements is shared with other necessities and responsibilities. The present owners are aware of the heritage values of the homestead and are sincerely trying to keep abreast of the effects of wear and tear to ensure the condition of the buildings and landscape is at least stabilised.

The place is highly significant as part of a group of farm buildings dating from the 19th century, part of a very significant complex of buildings on one of the earliest land grants in the Swan Valley, one of the original Swan Valley estates. The place is associated with the family of Samuel Moore. The Oakover precinct (homestead, gardens, vineyards, barns, stable, etc) is very significant to the history of the Swan River colony and Western Australia's early settlement and development.
Stable constructed of random rubble with timber roof structure and compacted iron cladding. The original timber stable partitions have been removed. Mud brick walls, random rubble gables, original roof replaced by zincalume. Verandahs on bush poles have been added and provide protection for the walls. Two-storey corrugated iron shed with timber frame door and steps on southern end. Steeply pitched roof with loft. The homestead consists of two sections. The earlier section probably dates from the 1870s with additions c.1890s. The earlier part is constructed of hand made bricks in Flemish bond, with twelve pane windows. The later section is rendered.

Constructed from 1859 to 1960
The place demonstrates the mid nineteenth century European settlement of the Swan Valley; The place has a close association with the establishment and development of the Western Australian wine industry; The place demonstrates the aesthetic characteristics of colonial vernacular architecture; and, The place is recognised by the community for its contribution to the sense of place and historical identity of the community.
Single-storey timber framed jarrah weatherboard house with corrugated iron roof and verandah. Windows with pressed metal awnings, French doors to front verandah; front door with side light. Part of complex of buildings connected with Houghton Winery. The design of Houghton Homestead is derived from that of the traditional Scottish crofter's farmhouse of that time and it was constructed from materials available on the site - bricks made from local clay, sheoak roofing shingles spilt on the property and pit sawn jarrah floor boards. The original building was a stable or barn, as was apparent when it was being converted to its present use. According to the Heritage Council assessment, it also contained a large kitchen with open fire and baking oven. Over the years the outer walls of the stable were bricked in, and apparently most of the building was converted to staff quarters. In the 1980s the Houghton Wine Co converted the building as part of its administration block, drastically altering the internal arrangement but preserving the overall character and external form. The roof has been reclad with shingles of western red cedar.
Houghton Winery is one of the earliest established vineyards and wineries in Western Australia.It has been suggested that the first vines were planted between 1830 and 1836. The original homestead is associated with Dr John Ferguson, Colonial Surgeon of Western Australia and with his son, Charles (CW) Ferguson, both prominent pioneers of the grape growing industry and wine making industries of WA from 1859 onwards.

Constructed from 1880, Constructed from 1900
The place, with its rich layering of historic fabric, exhibits characteristics of a substantial purpose built farm building group of the late nineteenth century to pre-World War II, and of the evolution of farming and farming practices from 1830 through until 1988; The farm buildings are simply and elegantly planned and executed, while the main homestead is a fine example of a Victorian Regency style house, rendered all the more aesthetically pleasing by its staged development within a unified visual treatment; The elements of the place collectively form a significant culturally modified landscape; The place has been associated with the European settlement of Western Australia, and of the Swan district in particular from 1830, being in the ownership of the Shaw family from 1830 to 1876, and the Loton family from 1876 to 1962, both of which families have played significant parts in the history and development of Western Australia and with the development of agriculture and farming in the State from 1830 to 1962; The place demonstrates, in the quality of the buildings and the subsequent changes to the fabric, the functions of each building and structure, and the social and economic status of the occupiers of the accommodation through time; The place demonstrates the characteristics of farming practised by well capitalized farm owners, and a property organised around the workings of the farm in a practical sense, as well as demonstrating a consciousness of the aesthetic possibilities of shaping the landscape and the buildings, and the individual elements, structures and buildings are fine examples of their respective classes; and The place, due to the intact nature of much of the fabric, has the potential to contribute to an understanding of the design and functions of late nineteenth century homesteads, workers' accommodation, farm buildings and structures in Western Australia, and of agriculture in the nineteenth and through the twentieth century in this State, demonstrating its growth and change. The Reception Centre constructed recently, together with fencing and landscaping dating from the present decade, have no cultural heritage significance.
Group comprising single-storey residence in the Victorian Regancy sytle, outhouses, dairy, workers' quarters, implement shed, calf shed, stables and barns, together with landscape elements.
Belvoir Estate originally part of the property owned by Lieutenant William Shaw who arrived in colony in 1830. Shaw died in 1862, and in 1876 the property was sold to William Thorley Loton and a small house was built. The existing buildings were built between 1880 and 1900 by the Loton family who owned the estate until 1961. Belvoir amphitheatre has been built since that time.
