Current heritage studies underway

In 2018 Council committed to undertake a Comprehensive Heritage Study to respond to the changing development context, demography and community expectations regarding the identification, policy and protection of Hornsby Shire’s heritage.

The Hornsby Heritage Action Plan (PDF 1.2MB) was prepared in 2019 to identify the strategic tasks required to guide the scope of the Comprehensive Heritage Study and informed a programme to complete the tasks.

The programme of works commenced in October 2020 and involves numerous projects to be undertaken over several years. The preparation of each study is being undertaken with input from the Hornsby Council Heritage Advisory Committee (HAC), and the Hornsby Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander Consultative Committee (HATSICC) throughout the course of each project.
