Q. What is the City of Bayside Heritage Review?
A. The City of Bayside Heritage Review was commissioned by the Bayside City Council to examine heritage structures, precincts and landscapes within the former Cities of Brighton, Sandringham and those parts of the former Cities of Moorabbin and Mordialloc-Cheltenham, Highett and Beaumaris which now form the City of Bayside.
Conducted in 1999 by Allom Lovell and Associates Pty Ltd, the study included a review of Andrew Ward’s two previous studies, the City of Brighton Urban Character and Conservation Study (1986) and the City of Sandringham Heritage and Conservation Study (1989).
Individual structures were given a classification (A, B or C) according to their heritage significance. Twenty-seven areas, known as heritage overlay precincts were deemed to be of heritage significance. These were also identified and contributory buildings were ranked A, B or C within the precinct boundary.
