Significance:

Operational from 1913 to 1976, the brickworks is of historical value as the first industrial manufacturing facility in the ACT, and for its integral role in providing base material used in the construction of the early buildings in the National Capital.  The several different kiln types are of considerable technical value and rarity.

 Risk:

The brickworks ceased operation in 1976 and since then the kilns and infrastructure have not been used for their original purposes.  Lack of regular maintenance and wilful neglect of the structures by successive government bodies over the years has led to a continual deterioration of the entire fabric of the place. 

 Desired outcome:
