Code Amendment ID: 10086 Yankalilla District Local Heritage - Stage 1 (Delamere, Normanville, Yankalilla)

Code Amendment Progressing

Public Consultation
Closed 13 March 2026

Code Amendment Type Third Party Code Amendment

Overview

The Fleurieu Peninsula was settled early in the colonisation of South Australia. Overland travel was difficult and small ports and jetties were established along the Gulf coast. By the mid-18th century roads were improved and bridges built, land cleared and grazed, crops planted and small settlements established. Natural resources were exploited and mills, stores and workshops established. The years between 1850 and 1868 were a boom period, and Yankalilla became one of the five major towns in the colony.

Many buildings and places from this period remain in excellent condition but there are currently no Local Heritage Place listings within the District Council of Yankalilla. This Code Amendment seeks the permanent approval to list 51 Local Heritage Places situated within the townships of Delamere, Normanville and Yankalilla in order to protect this substantial domestic and community heritage.
