Exploring the Cowpastures region: the early history of a settler society

The Cowpastures region, named by Governor Hunter in 1795, reflects a culturally constructed landscape stemming from the 18th century. Originating with wild cattle from the First Fleet, it evolved into a significant colonial area intersecting Indigenous history. The region's identity waned by the late 19th century but is celebrated today for its historical legacy.

Carinya homestead, part of lost Camden

Camden Council voted to demolish the 1890 Carinya Cottage in Harrington Park, based on reports that it lacked local significance and associative value. This decision reflects a larger issue of neglect for heritage in New South Wales, with a lack of protection for historic sites and a conflict of interest in the assessment process. The political climate prioritizes development over heritage protection.
