Heritage Database Help
The State Heritage Inventory or online database contains over 20,000 heritage items on statutory lists in New South Wales. This information is mainly provided by local councils and most records have basic identification information such as Name, Address and Listing.
It also includes items listed on the State Heritage Register.
While the Heritage Branch seeks to keep the Inventory up to date, the most recent listings in local and regional environmental plans may not yet be included. Always check with the relevant Local Council or Shire for the most recent listings.
Searching
The following tips will help you when searching:
- The best results are achieved by entering the least criteria.
- Begin your search by entering the Street Name (eg George Street, type 'George') and select the Local Government Area.
- Avoid searching by Item Name unless you are certain of the exact name.
- If you get too few or no matching records try entering less criteria and search again, eg. "awa" instead of "awa tower" or "elizabeth" instead of "elizabeth farmhouse".
- If you get too many matching records, try entering more specific criteria and search again.
- You only need to type the first few letters of a word or text, eg. "hillv" will find "Hillview".
- Speed your search by selecting from the Local Government Area or Listings options.
- Your search can be restricted to fully described items by checking the Information complete box.
An  Advanced Search with more criteria is also available.
Please be patient when searching. If your search fails, try again. The speed of the search will vary with the level of Internet traffic.
