<strong>Newtown</strong> <strong>Heritage</strong> <strong>Study</strong> <strong>Review</strong>, July 2009 – Volume 1<br />
Non significant buildings within heritage precincts are those that do not<br />
contribute to the significant development periods in the area or are <strong>of</strong> such low<br />
integrity/intactness that they do not meet the threshold for inclusion. These<br />
buildings also include recently constructed buildings. In general terms, buildings<br />
need to be <strong>of</strong> at least the “altered” integrity category to be assessed as being <strong>of</strong><br />
contributory significance.<br />
1.14 Levels <strong>of</strong> Significance:<br />
The values <strong>of</strong> A = State or National significance, B = Regional significance, C =<br />
Local significance, D = Contributory significance and Not Significant were used.<br />
The definitions for each significance value are:<br />
National<br />
Places that are considered significant to the nation.<br />
They meet the Criteria <strong>of</strong> the Register <strong>of</strong> the National Estate and the Criteria <strong>of</strong><br />
the <strong>Heritage</strong> Council <strong>of</strong> Victoria, but most importantly, these places make an<br />
outstanding contribution to Australia's cultural heritage.<br />
State - A<br />
Places that are considered significant to the State <strong>of</strong> Victoria.<br />
They meet the Criteria <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Heritage</strong> Council <strong>of</strong> Victoria and the Criteria <strong>of</strong> the<br />
Register <strong>of</strong> the National Estate.<br />
Regional - B<br />
Places that are considered significant to the <strong>Geelong</strong> Region (within the<br />
boundaries <strong>of</strong> the <strong>City</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Greater</strong> <strong>Geelong</strong>).<br />
They meet the Criteria <strong>of</strong> the Register <strong>of</strong> the National Estate. These places<br />
identify with the specific heritage values <strong>of</strong> the particular community/suburb.<br />
Local - C<br />
Places that are considered significant to a local area, (whether individually<br />
significant or as a contributor to the urban character and/or heritage value<br />
<strong>of</strong> the area).<br />
They meet the Criteria <strong>of</strong> the Register <strong>of</strong> the National Estate. These places<br />
identify with the specific heritage values <strong>of</strong> the particular community/suburb.<br />
Contributory - D<br />
Places that demonstrate the heritage values <strong>of</strong> the heritage area, but<br />
would fail to meet the threshold for heritage significance if located outside<br />
the heritage area.<br />
Not Significant<br />
Places considered not to have heritage significance.<br />
