What does National Trust classification/listing mean?
National Trust classification means the place has been recognized for its cultural heritage significance, and efforts should be undertaken to conserve this for future generations. If a classified place becomes threatened, the National Trust will take action to preserve it through advocacy and campaigns. The National Trust also liaises with the government bodies, such as Heritage Victoria, to obtain legal protection for a place and encourages appropriate and sensitive planning in recognized historic precincts, such as Melbourne’s inner suburbs.
