Statement of significance:


	Wambo Homestead Complex is state significant in the context of Australian pastoral activities and horse breeding in New South Wales and for its capacity to demonstrate the development of pastoral and agricultural activity in the Hunter Region--an important early region of colonial settlement. This significance is strongly demonstrated in the survival of the core group of five early homestead buildings, constructed between the mid 1830s and mid 1840s, and in the relationship of all buildings and structures of the Wambo Homestead Complex to their setting and the landscape. Wambo Homestead Complex is state significant as an important group of homestead buildings which remain substantially intact and which display the progressive architectural development of a typical Australian homestead group. It is also state significant for its capacity to demonstrate rare evidence of extensive early finishes in the fabric of the core group of 1830s and 1840s buildings, and for the retention of all original joinery of the four masonry buildings of this group. The New House is state significant for its refined design and capacity to demonstrate architectural ambition at an early stage of colonial rural settlement. Wambo Homestead Complex is state significant for its rarity as an important homestead complex that was established by a former convict in the Hunter Region, where most large estates were established by free settlement. The complex is significant for its associations with its original owner, the emancipist convict James Hale, who was responsible for the complex's core buildings and who, by 1844, had established himself as one of the top 100 landholders in the colony. Although the Wambo Homestead Complex is in a 'rundown' condition, it still maintains and demonstrates its state significance.

Description


Construction years:	1830-1906
Physical description:	The Homestead is presently comprised of eight buildings, the earliest being the kitchen wing. Originally this was a single storey sandstone building with a cellar, to which a brick upper floor was added. A large brick laundry has also been added. Other buildings include the Stud Master's Cottage of three rooms and the brick servants wing of three rooms also. All are 'Old Colonial Georgian', the earliest European architectural style used in Australia. Around 1844, the 'Victorian Regency' New House was built, constructed of brick and render with a stone base. It is a distinctive single-storey rendered (stucco) brick house, obviously conceived as an architecturally ambitious Regency style villa. Rigorously designed to impress as a tasteful, spare, symmetrical grand homestead residence, it was placed to present to the valley floor and ranges to the south, turning the 'old house' into an impressive supporting kitchen and service wing. The four principal rooms, arranged as pairs either side of an axial central flagged hall, are covered by a low, transverse, hipped roof. These are surrounded by a lower skirt of verandahs and verandah room rooms, set at a lower pitch but similarly roofed originally with hardwood shingles (GML, Wambo Homestead Complex, Revised Database of Hunter Region Homesteads, Report, Nov 2010, p. 28). Other buildings which make up the Homestead are the Slab Carriage House with Stables, the timber slab / rammed earth Butcher's Hut and the Slab Horse Boxes. Other remote structures exist on the property including a large hay barn, silos and fences. There is rare evidence of extensive early finishes in the fabric of the core group of 1830s and 1840s buildings. The four masonry buildings of this group demonstrate rare retention of all their original joinery.
Physical condition and/or Archaeological potential:	As a group of buildings, Wambo Homestead is rare in New South Wales in that many outbuildings still remain substantially intact allowing easy understanding of the development of a homestead complex.
	Date condition updated:11 Dec 01
Modifications and dates:	1830s - Single brick Stud Master's Cottage and Servants Wing constructed possibly while the brick upper floor to the kitchen wing was added. 1837 - Homestead was situated on 4480 acres and included a large brick structure with cellars. 1844 (circa) - The New House was constructed. The construction of the Carriage House and Stables would have been contemporary with the building of the New House.


Current use:	coal mining
Former use:	Aboriginal land, pastoral and agricultural activity and horse breeding

History

Historical notes:

Aboriginal Presence
Wambo Homestead is located close to the junction of the traditional boundaries of the Kamilaroi and the Wonaruah peoples. The Kamilaroi extended west to the Namoi and Barwon Rivers, and across the Liverpool Plains. The Wonaruah, who were closely affiliated with the Kamilaroi, occupied the central Hunter Valley area from around Merriwa and the Goulburn River, north to the Paterson. Europeans made contact with both groups when trying to cross the Blue Mountains from Windsor. Archaeological surveys have identified a number of Aboriginal camp sites at the Wambo mine site.
Following European settlement, Aboriginal people remained around Wambo and Jerry's Plains, but relations were frequently strained. There is no reported contact between the Wambo settlers and the Kamilaroi or Wonaruah peoples, but there is evidence of an ongoing Aboriginal presence at Wambo from the 1830s, and records of Aboriginal people working on the estate for the Durham family.

European Settlement of the Hunter Valley
1813: Four well-behaved convicts, from the Newcastle penal station, were provided with small land grants for farming near Paterson's Plains in the lower Hunter. Convict farming was the only official early settlement allowed in the Hunter Valley which was initially closed to settlers.
1820: Governor Macquarie established the new penal settlement in the more remote location of Port Macquarie and officially opened up Newcastle and the Hunter Valley to free settlement in 1821.
1820: John Howe, a Windsor settler, led a party from Windsor through the Broken Back Ranges to present day Broke and Jerry's Plains arriving near Singleton (close to Wambo). He named the wide grassy flood plain St Patricks Plains where he was granted land. This marked the beginnings of European settlement of the middle and upper Hunter Valley.

1822-29: Rapid European settlement of the Hunter Valley. Over 300 farms totalling over 800,000 acres were established on granted and leased land. Most farms were run by resident settlers and most were over 1000 acres.
Settlement of the Hunter Valley was either via sea from Sydney, or overland from Windsor. Livestock were largely driven along the overland route.

By the 1830s the Hunter Valley was the most densely settled district outside the Cumberland Plain.
Smaller farms, generally less than 100 acres, were established around Maitland, Paterson and Singleton based on land grants that were matched to an applicant's income or capital (as recommended by the Bigge Report). Most of these were the subsistence farms of emancipated convicts or colonial free born.

Larger properties for sheep and cattle grazing with grain growing were generally held by emigrant farmers and worked by assigned convicts (the Hunter Valley having a large proportion of the colony's assigned convicts).
By 1828, of the 91 estates in the Hunter Valley that were over 1000 acres, only two were recorded as being owned by ex-convicts.

Development of the Wambo Estate 1824-40
Land around Wambo was desirable, close to the Windsor Road and the fertile valley flats of the Wollombi Brook and Hunter River. It was granted early in the European settlement of the Hunter Valley, as 1824 and 1825 land grants to two free emigrants. There is no evidence that either grantee had developed the land or built any substantial structures before both grants were sold to James Hale who established the Wambo Estate.

James Hale arrived in the colony in 1816 as a 20 year old convict who was forwarded to Windsor on assignment.
By 1822, Hale had been freed by servitude and was working as an overseer for William Cox in the Hawkesbury.
In the 1820s and early 1830s Hale was a contractor to the Colonial Government supplying fresh and salt beef, mutton, flour, maize, firewood and cartage for survey parties departing Windsor.

By 1828 he had established himself as a successful Windsor resident and local businessman, being innkeeper of the White Hart Inn at Windsor with 5 assigned servants; 2133 acres of land (11 being cleared); 11 horses; 433 cattle and 1090 sheep.

1835: Hale purchased 1218 acres on Wollombi Brook. This marked the beginning of his Hunter Valley landholding interests, which Hale rapidly expanded.
1835-37: Hale added a further 10,240 acres in leasehold. This marked him as having an unusually large landholding for a Hunter Valley emancipist.

Hale expanded his landholdings in the 1830s and 1840s with purchases in the Liverpool Plains around Inverell, and further west around Coonabarabran. By 1841 Hale's grazing empire comprised almost 100,000 acres. Most of his properties (like Wambo) were run by managers who lived on site and worked the property with both assigned convicts and newly arrived immigrant labour.

James Hale resided at Windsor throughout his ownership of Wambo, in the house he purchased from his former master, William Cox

c 1830-3 Hale constructed the first building on the Wambo Estate. The Kitchen Wing was begun as a single storey stone building with a cellar and later extended with an upper level of brick.
1837 Stud Masters Cottage
1840 Carriage House with Stables and Granary
1844 Servants Wing
1844-7 New House

Hale was possibly influenced in the design of Wambo by the Colonial Architect Francis Greenway whose work he would have encountered through his close relationship with William Cox. Cox took a number of contracts, where he worked with Greenway, for the construction of public buildings around Windsor . Hale may also have used some of Cox's builders for the construction of Wambo.

The term 'villa' was first used in England in the 17th century, partly from the Latin and Italian 'country house, farm', perhaps derived from the stem of vicus (village). The villa was a country mansion or residence, together with a farm, farm-buildings, or other house attached, built or occupied by a person of some position and wealth. It was taken to include a country seat or estate and later a residence in the country or in the neighbourhood of a town, usually standing in its own grounds. From this is was appropriated by the middleof the 18th century to mean a residence of a superior type, in the suburbs of a town or in a residential district, such as that occupied by a person of the middle class, and also a small, better-class dwelling house, usually detached or semi-detached. The term 'villa garden' was used in the context of Hobart and Sydney residences in the 1830s, and if near the coast or harbour, the appellation 'marine villa' was often applied. Australian origins probably date from the grant conditions applied to Sydney's Woolloomooloo Hill (1827, under Governor Darling), which obligated the construction of villas fulfilling certain conditions... 'with garden like domain, and external offices for stables and domestic economy' (John Buonarotti Papworth, 1825, quoted in James Broadbent's 1997 book, 'The Australian Colonial House'). Many gardens of 19th century villas followed Gardenesque conventions, with garden ornaments often complementing the architecture of the house. The term had acquired such widespread usage by the 1850s that when Jane Loudon issued a new editiion of her husband (John Claudius Loudon)'s 'Suburban Gardener and Villa Companion' (1838) she merely entitled the revised work 'The Villa Gardener' (1850). This coincided with a growing period of suburbanisation in Australia with consequent fostering of the nursery trade... By the 1880s, descriptions of Australian villas implied sufficient room for a lawn on two or three fronts of the residence...(Aitken, 2002, 619-20).

By 1844 James Hale was one of the largest 100 landholders in the colony; an established sheep and cattle grazier and wheat farmer with at least 4 assigned convicts working at Wambo.
Hale used Wambo as a halfway point for moving sheep between Windsor and his properties on the Liverpool Plains and New England. Over the 1840s to 1870s, the Wambo herd developed into prize-winning bulls and cows at local and Sydney shows.

1857 James Hale died, leaving Wambo and many of his other properties to William Durham, the eldest son of his wife Mary from her first marriage. Durham had very likely been the manager of Wambo. Wambo continued in Durham family ownership until 1894 when it was sold into various hands.
1863 coal was discovered at Wambo (during well-drilling).

1900 construction of the timber Butcher's Hut.
1905 Wambo Estate was purchased by RC Allen and Frank Macdonald for use as a thoroughbred stud. Allen and Macdonald implemented a program of timber building in 1906 that included the Slab Horse Boxes and the Mounting Yard and Horse Boxes and fences.
1906 Property subdivided and Macdonald family purchased the Wambo Homestead block which they held until 1983.

1971 Wambo Mining Corporation bought much of the surrounding land (but not the homestead block).
1981 National Trust listing of Wambo Homestead.
1982 Permanent Conservation Order made over Wambo Homestead.
1987 Wambo Mining Corporation bought the Wambo Homestead block and began mining the area, using the Wambo Homestead for training and storage until 2000.
2000 Wambo Homestead vacated.

Coal Mining at and around Wambo, 1960s-2019):
The United Mine and Wambo Mine are c16km west of Singleton. Wambo is an existing coal mining opreation and a neighbour operation to United. Wambo Coal P/L is a subsidiary of Peabody Energy Australia P/L. The United and Wambo coal mining operations were established in 1989 and the late 1960s, respectively. THere have been a range of underground and open cut coal mining operations at both locations since that time, with a number of agreements entered into by United Collieries P/L (United) and Wambo Coal over time in relation to access to underground and open cut coal reserves within mining titles held by each company. The current existing and approved Wambo open cut coal mine was planned to produce up to 8 Mtpa of run of mine coal up to 2017. The combined Wambo underground and open cut operations, have approval to extract up to 14.7 Mtpa run of mine, and transport up to 15 Mtpa product coal via the approved train loading facility, until 2025. Wambo has lodged a modification to its development consent DA 305-7-2003, which includes an extension to the life of the open cut up to and including 2020, and an extension of the life of underground mining operations to 2032. In November 2014 a 50:50 joint venture between United Collieries P/L and Wambo Coal P/L was announced, which, once commenced, will combine extraction and exploration rights for a number of mining tenements at United and Wambo mines. Subject to receipt of all necessary approvals, the joint veneture will look to develop the United Wambo Open Cut Coal Mine Project (the project) that combines the existing open cut operations at Wambo with a propoosed new open cut coal mine at United. The project is a state-significant development and will require a modification of the existing Wambo development consents under s.75W of the EP & A Act. An Environmental Impact Statement is currently being prepared to accompany these applications (www.unitedproject.com.au/en/about-us/Pages/united-wambo-project.aspx).

In 2019 the NSW Independent Planning Commission has proposed that approval of a proposed Wambo coal mine expansion be linked, for the first time, by conditions of consent requiring the joint venture (Glencore/Peabody United Wambo project) to ensure 'all practicable measures' are taken to minimise greenhouse gas emissions in countires where its coal is exported, including Japan, China, South Korea, Taiwan, India, Malaysia, the Philippines and Vietnam. The IPC called for public comment on the proposal, requiring the joint venture to prepare an export management plan linking the sale of Australian coal to countries with policies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in line with the Paris Agreement (to hold global warming 'well below 2 degrees celsius' and pursue efforts to limit the temperature increase to 1.5 degrees above pre-industrial levels, requiring countries to achieve net zero emissions as soon as 2050 (McCarthy, Newcastle Herald, 4/8/2019).

Assessment of significance


SHR Criteria a) [Historical significance]	Wambo Homestead shows the development of pastoral activities in the Hunter Valley after Commissioner J.T Bigge's reports to the British Government on the state of the colony and its administration. Wambo Homestead specifically shows the pattern of selection by residents of Windsor via John Howe's newly established Bulga Road. It provides evidence of the rise to wealth of James Hale, a former convict and important resident of Windsor who by the mid 1840s had established himself as a successfull entrepreneur and one of the 100 largest landholders in the colony. Wambo Homestead is a rare example which demonstrates the economic development of the Hunter Valley Region from an agricultural base through sheep, cattle and horse breeding to dairying and presently coal mining. The process involved in gaining the best economic opportunities from the property can be clearly seen.
SHR Criteria b) [Associative significance]	As the creation of the convicted thief, James Hale, Wambo Estate demonstrates the enormous opportunities open to the pioneers of New South Wales. Within two decades a farm boy serving a seven year prison term had become wealthy and influential in two districts, the Hawkesbury and the Hunter Valley, and one of the colony's largest landholders. In the Durham period, the property continued to yield affluence to its owners, allowing the children of convicts to control the circumstances of their lives and to live with some style.
SHR Criteria c) [Aesthetic significance]	Wambo Homestead remains substantially intact and largely unaltered. The buildings follow the architectural vocabulary of vernacular Georgian England and demonstrate the progressive architectural development of a typical early Australian homestead group. The New House (c.1847) is state significant for its capacity to demonstrate refined design and architectural ambition at an early stage of colonial settlement through its conception as an architecturally ambitious Regency style villa that was designed to impress as a tasteful, spare, symmetrical grand homestead residence placed to present to the valley floor and ranges to the south.
SHR Criteria d) [Social significance]	Wambo Homestead demonstrates the opportunities available to energetic people who were transported to NSW in the early decades of the 19th century. Wambo Homestead is significant in terms of its distance from Hales place of residence, Windsor, and because of its position in the broadening agricultural enterprises of pioneer settlers. The group of buildings express the way farms were operated, with an emphasis on manual labour, and the use of the horse for work and transport. As the residence of William and Sophia Durham the homestead has associative social significance in the Hunter Valley. This is evident in the substantial development of the Homestead in the early years and the descriptions of lifestyle afforded by visiting commentators of the period. Further, the development of the Horse Stud infrastructure by the Allen and McDonald partnership provides physical evidence of the social and sporting aspirations of elite residents of Sydney at the turn of the 20th century.
SHR Criteria e) [Research potential]	As an archaeological resource the buildings and surrounding grounds provided an opportunity to contribute to the knowledge regarding the expansion of the colony of New South Wales, its agricultural diversification and every day life on homestead properties from the 1820s till the 1890s.
SHR Criteria f) [Rarity]	As a group of buildings, Wambo Homestead is rare in New South Wales in that many outbuildings still remain substantially intact allowing easy understanding of the development of a homestead complex. It is rare as a large and important estate established by an emancipated convict in the Hunter Valley, where most such estates were established by free settlers. The core group of 1830s and 1840s buildings demonstrate rare evidence of extensive early finishes in the building fabric and the retention of all the original joinery in the four masonry buildings of the group.
