Overview

Reproduction development plan of Connor's Mill, made for Toodyay Tourist Council Inc. by Ian Chitty in 1975.
Plan shows proposed fire escapes from the first and second floors of the Mill, via new doorways, exterior stairwells leading from the building's rear.
This work was not carried out.
The plan appears to be a reproduction of an original drawing.
Despite some yellowing from age the plan is in a good condition.

Contextual Information

In 1998 the Toodyay Tourist Centre Inc. amalgamated with the Shire of Toodyay and its assets were transferred to the Shire.
It is assumed that these plans were then passed on to the museum as historical documents.

Statement of significance

The value of this proposed development plan (along with the five others in this collection) lies in its research value as a dated plan of building structure and development during the last 30 years. While only of local significance, it demonstrates Toodyay’s developing heritage tourism economy and the differing approaches that were being considered.
