Today the Legislative Council Built Heritage Committee met with the Friends of Willow Court and toured the site as part of their investigations into Tasmanian Heritage. The use and conditions of the site were taken into considerations on today’s tour as the committee wandered through the restored and un-restored sections. The Derwent Valley Council will have a separate time with the the Committee Members next week. The Committee are looking and reporting back on the following:
The management, preservation, tourist marketing and promotion of built heritage assets in Tasmania, with particular reference to:
1. The current and future potential contribution that built heritage makes to tourism in Tasmania;
2. The role of Government;
3. The role of tourism organisations;
4. The role of heritage organisations;
5. Any relevant considerations in other jurisdictions;
6. Any other matters incidental thereto.
The Committee Members moved onto Redland’s Estate after their Willow Court experience.
