Heritage Impact Assessment for relocation of Character House (Rev. C)
45 Maple Street, Cooroy
For: Medicentre No. 2 Pty Ltd



        Drawing upon the preceding sequence of streetscape photographs and the associated streetscape
        analysis at Figure 70 (above), it is considered self-evident that the majority of extant examples of
        early character houses situated within the Maple Street Character Area mapped in the Heritage
        overlay are actually located within and distributed across the southern portion of that streetscape
        while conversely the northern portion of same – intersecting with Myall Street and containing the
        private hospital and a range of adjoining contemporary commercial buildings as well as the subject
        site – exhibits a predominantly contemporary and non-residential streetscape character that is
        inconsistent with the historical streetscapes typically protected within the overlay through the
        corresponding overlay code.

        Consequently, due to the range and diversity of scale, land use / building type and construction era
        represented in the northern portion of the Maple Street streetscape surrounding the subject house
        and still situated within the overlay mapping, it follows that the removal of the subject early house
        located at No. 45 Maple Street from that streetscape, as currently proposed, would not result in a
        meaningful or concerning loss of historical streetscape character from that locality.
