Hill End Historic Site – Draft Plan of Management

 Ross McDonnell, NPA Treasurer and former NPWS Regional Manager

It is hard to imagine a current government purchasing most of an historic town, with live-in residents, and transferring it to the National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS). The foresight of doing so in 1967 to protect heritage values and to add a new reserve to the historic site category was courageous and commendable.
