Turramurra Heritage Precinct Walk Sydney’s Early History Highlighted, Protected and Signed for Visitation
A Vision for Turramurra that is Different to Hornsby and Chatswood
• Old and New – part adaptive restoration and part completely new
• Progress and Protection – Turramurra needs change - also its history needs protection
• Modern and Historical – something new embedded within heritage areas
• North and South – permits the development of retail on both sides of the Pacific Hwy

Why a Heritage Precinct Walk
• Cumulative, significant biodiversity loss has occurred in the village of Turramurra
• The Heritage Precinct Walk will recompense that loss to some degree
• The project is designed to put a significant collection of buildings into focus
• Heritage signs to highlight Turramurra’s and Sydney’s early settlement history
• It defines a master-plan around which new, people friendly development can occur
• The potential exists for Ku-ring-gai to have an award winning urban precinct

Hillview Buildings, Grounds & Views
This rare vista still survives from Turramurra’s early history.
The curtilage with its row of 100 year old trees needs protection before it is lost to development

The gates and stonework establish an area for contemplation
The Community Garden folk are keen to take on the creation of Hillview’s gardens:
MINIMAL COST TO COUNCIL

Hillview Adjoining Heritage Buildings: Chemist Shop
Still standing, the original chemist shop (shown above at the top of the hill beside “Lane Cove Road”, and to the right as it currently exists)
has the potential to be sympathetically redeveloped into a guest-house or health-based business

Socio-Economic Value of Highlighting Turramurra’s Environment & History
This vision would create:
• An adaptively restored and integrated Heritage and Commercial Precinct which is economically sustainable
• A potentially award winning urban plan - creating a lasting “sense of place” for Ku-ring-gai
• A new community meeting place - establishing a civic and cultural hub for Turramurra and Ku-ring-gai
• A educational walk, highlighting Turramurra’s contribution to Sydney’s early history
• A monument to the history of Turramurra while enhancing the value of Hillview
• An active place for the local community to landscape and beautify at minimal cost to Council
