Statement of Significance:

Beverly Hills Railway Station group is of local significance as a public work completed for an

unemployment relief project during the Great Depression and as a transport hub for the

suburb of Beverly Hills since 1931.

Beverly Hills Railway Station platform building is of aesthetic significance as an austere

1930s railway building with simple Art Deco detailing and fine brick workmanship that is

evocative of the effects of the Depression on building programs for large organisations such

as the NSW railways. Beverly Hills Railway Station is representative of the cohesive

collection of 10 East Hills line railway stations from Turrella to East Hills.

Historical Notes or Provenance:

The first European settlement in the area was the establishment of a farm known as

"Dumbleton" in the 1830s. The area south of the railway line was part of John Townson's 250

acre grant of 1810. The area remained semi-rural until the construction of the East Hills line

and the railway station.

The main impetus for the construction of the East Hills line was from the real estate industry

which wanted to develop the area where the line was proposed. However, construction of the

line was delayed and it became an unemployment relief project during the course of its

construction due to the onset of the Great Depression.

"The Public Works Committee recommended the line to State Parliament in August 1924,

expecting a small operating profit and opening up good building land. The debate on the Bill

to construct the line took only 15 minutes after it was introduced at 5.12am on 17 December

1924, and the Governors assent given on 23 December, but no funds were provided. Just

before the State elections in 1927, the Premier, Jack Lang, performed the 'Turning of the

First Sod' ceremony at Padstow on 3rd September 1927, but he lost the election. However,

the new non-labour government in April 1928, instructed the Railways Commissioners to

commence work on the line." (from www.canterbury.nsw.gov.au).

Jack Lang was Premier for two periods: the first from June 1925 to October 1927, the second

period (during the Depression) from October 1930 to May 1932. Jack Lang was therefore

again Premier when he officially opened the East Hills line at Padstow Railway Station in

1931, with the section as far as Kingsgrove being a double track electrified line.

All platform buildings on the East Hills line were built to the same general design and plan,

which was revised after initial planning to include a booking office, Station Master’s office and

parcels office. The platform at Beverly Hills is unique on the line by having the’ Down’ side

straight and the ’Up‘ side curved.

The line was electrified from Kingsgrove in 1939, duplicated in 1948, and in 1987 the East

Hills terminus was connected to the Main Southern Line at Glenfield Junction. Dumbleton

was renamed Beverly Hills in 1940, and the railway station was also renamed.

In the post war period of the 1940s and 1950s migrant hostels and housing commission

estates were developed in suburbs along the line.

Although the original terminus building at East Hills Station was demolished in 1987, the

remainder of the East Hills Line from Turrella to Panania is the only line in Sydney with all

platform buildings extant from its original construction phase (though some have been

altered).

In 2007 a lift to the platform was built along with steel awning that covered the stairs and

extended to the building from street level. The station has the distinction of being one of the

last in Sydney to sell ’Edmondson’ card type tickets.

In 2009 construction work was undertaken to upgrade the East Hills line generally following

quadruplification of the line.

Platform Building (1931) (Type 13)

Platform (1931)

King Georges Road Overbridge (1931)

Stairs, lift and platform canopy (2007)

CONTEXT

The station has one island platform with entry via sets of stairs on the east and west sides of

the King Georges Road overbridge which enter the west end of the platform. The west end of

the platform extends under the road overbridge. The station perimeter is defined with white

powder coated aluminium fencing.

PLATFORM BUILDING (1931)

Exterior: A rectangular dark face brick platform building of standard stretcher bond brickwork

of 5 bays length (note: most platform buildings on this line are 5 bays), with the bays defined

by simple brick engaged piers. The building has a brick stepped parapet at the east end only.

The roof is gabled at the east end against the parapet at this end and is hipped over awnings

to the north and south which are an integral part of the roof form as well as hipped at the

western end. The roof cladding is corrugated steel. The stepped parapet at the eastern end

features a projecting moulded brick capping course and 3 vertical lines of projecting

decorative brickwork as well as a pair of rectangular timber louvred vents.

When it was planned, a hipped roof wrapped around a stepped parapet at the western end

(similar to that at Bexley North). The roof was originally clad with corrugated fibro asbestos

sheeting with terra cotta ridge capping. This has been replaced with a corrugated steel roof

with a fully hipped end and it is presumed that (as at Padstow) the original stepped parapet

at the east end elevation has been demolished. Two windows have been bricked up. There

are timber framed fixed obscure glass windows. The windows are modern and the timber

frames original.

Also present are modern timber flush doors, bullnosed brick sills to windows, shallow brick

arches above doors and windows, stop chamfered brickwork to door and window openings.

Windows are timber-framed double-hung, some with original 6-paned top sashes or small

timber framed windows with frameless glass or glass louvres. Original door openings have

grey terrazzo thresholds. There are modern fibre cement sheet ceilings to the awnings.

There is an aluminium framed glazed panel to the ticket window at the entry end of the

platform.

Interior (Not accessed 2009): The building interior (following extension in 1950) comprised of

a combined booking/parcels office (now also the Station Master's room), ladies toilets,

waiting room and men's toilets. The interior fitout has been refurbished in 1998 and again in

2004.

PLATFORM (1931)

One island platform, asphalt surface, original brick faces.

STAIRS, LIFT AND PLATFORM CANOPY (2007)

A platform canopy structure on steel posts with concrete bases extends from the entry steps

at the western end of the platform to the western end of the platform building. A modern lift,

stairs and canopies over the stairs.

KING GEORGES ROAD OVERBRIDGE (1931)

Original jack arched bridge with modern concrete girders. Original brick abutments and

central brick pier remain. Span reconstruction c. 1960s.

Physical Condition: Platform Building (1931): good Platform (1931): good King Georges Road Overbridge

(1931): good Stairs, lift and platform Canopy (2007): very good

Modification Dates: 1948: line duplicated.

1950: Extension to platform building to create a combined booking and parcels office,

matching brickwork.

c. 1960s: Span reconstruction to 1931 King Georges Road overbridge.

1998: interior fitout alterations to 1931 platform building.

2004-2007: Interior fitout alterations to 1931 platform building. New stairs, canopies and lift.

N.d: The platform building has been re-roofed in corrugated steel (roofing originally fibro

asbestos corrugated sheeting with terracotta ridge capping) and its east end stepped parapet

has been demolished. A number of window openings have been bricked up. New timber

flush doors and a modern ticket window.

Recommended Management:

Further Comments:

Criteria a) Beverly Hills Railway Station is of historical significance as part of the East Hills line, a major

Depression period public work undertaken under the controversial Premiership of Jack Lang

and through its relationship to the development of the suburb of Beverly Hills and the broader

East Hills region. The austere design of the platform building is reflective of the completion of

the East Hills line as a Depression period unemployment relief works project.

Criteria c) Beverly Hills Railway Station platform building is of aesthetic significance as an example of a

small Inter-War period suburban railway station platform building matching other East Hills

Criteria b) Research to date does not indicate any historical association with a person or groups that

are important to the historical development of the area.

line platform buildings in design and style. The building is very austere in style, with Inter-War

Art Deco style touches and is competently executed, exhibiting fine workmanship in its

brickwork. The building is noted for its use of monochromatic brickwork, one extant stepped

parapet, irregular fenestration and engaged piers.

Criteria d) The place has the potential to contribute to the local community's sense of place and can

provide a connection to the local community's past.

Criteria e) Beverly Hills Railway Station is of research significance for its ability to demonstrate design

and construction techniques of the Depression period (early 1930s). The building provides

insights into NSW Railways experimentation with styles of architecture and adaptation to

Depression period economic conditions.

Criteria g) Beverly Hills Railway Station is a representative example of an East Hills line railway station,

with the platform intact and the platform building exterior intact but altered with modern

platform access structures.

Criteria f) The Beverly Hills Railway Station platform building is not rare as it is part of a group of 10

similar to identical Inter-War suburban railway buildings completed in 1931 between Turrella

and East Hills.

Integrity / Intactness: The platform building is moderately intact externally. One of its parapets has been

demolished and some openings bricked up. The platform entry arrangements and interior of

the platform building have also been modernised in 2004-2007. The King Georges Road

overbridge is also considerably altered. This is one of the least intact of the East Hills line

stations.

Item Name: Federation House

Location: 71 Edgbaston Road, Beverly Hills [Hurstville]


Current Use:

Former Uses:


The subject house now known as "Edythe House" at 71 Edgbaston Road, Beverly Hills is of

local heritage significance as a representative of the Inter-War housing development and

growth in the Beverly Hills area. The house was built in the 1920s following the further

subdivision of a larger estate and was one of the earliest lots to be developed, along with the

neighbouring property at number 79.

It is a well detailed weatherboard house which retained decorative elements of the

Federation style in which it was constructed.


Sold in Block E of the 3rd Penshurst Park Estate subdivision, the land made up of lots 36

and 37 was developed with a house "Gladys" in 1926 by the owner, Joseph Watson -

Storeman. In 1948 lot 36, with the house and a garage was sold to Bruce Bernard Newman

Werrington -teacher, whilst Lot 237 was sold separately to Albert Watson, fitter and turner

and John Albert Whittle -draughtsman, after this time both lots were owned separately. In

1954 Bruce Bernard Newman Werrington sold to Mr Warren Ashley Trutwein -clerk,

Lawrence Arthur Peter Trutwein -Naval Airman, Mrs Edith Trutwein who retained ownership

into the 1960s.

Further Comments:

Criteria a) The subject house at 71 Edgbaston Road, Beverly Hills was built in the 1920s following the

subdivision of the large estates which made up Penshurst in the 1800s. Together with its

neighbouring property at number 79, it reflects the suburban development of the area in the

Inter-war period. This development was slow prior to the construction of the East Hills railway

line in 1931, making one of the earliest blocks of this estate to be developed.

Criteria c) The house at 71 Edgbaston Rd, is a well detailed federation style weatherboard cottage

retaining characteristics of the style, incuding decorative bargeboards, and bracketed awings

over double sash windows.

Criteria d) Social significance of the place require a more detailed study in order to ascertain its value to

the local community. However, it could be anticipated that the House's Inter-War period

construction would provide a historical connection to the local community.

Criteria e) the house has a potential to provide information on the construction system and detailing of

an Inter-war period house built in the federation style.

Former Uses:


The subject house now known as "Woodville" at 79 Edgbaston Road, Beverly Hills is of local

heritage significance as a representative of the Inter-War housing development and growth in

the Beverly Hills area. The house was built in the 1920s following the further subdivision of a

larger estate and was one of the earliest lots to be developed, along with the neighbouring

property at number 71.

It is a well detailed face brick house which retains decorative elements of the Federation

style in which it was constructed.


In 1900 lot 9, section H of the 3rd Penshurst Park Estate subdivision was sold to Priscilla

Humphreys in 1900. It was subdivided into multiple lots and these sold individuals, most

likely in the 1920s, at which time the current house "Woodville" was built. Julia Beryl Field,

wife of Henry James Field of Penshurst -Polisher and Leslie William Clark of Lane Cove

purchased this lot as joint tenants from the estate of Williss Woodward -Clerk in 1946. In

1948 it was transferred to Julia Beryl Field alone who remained living in the house into the

1960s, after selling part of the lot in 1952.

Location: 136 Carlton Parade, Carlton [Hurstville]


Current Use:

Former Uses:


The subject house at 136 Carlton Parade, Carlton is of local significance as a representative

of Inter-War housing development and growth in the wider municipality. It was built following

the subdivision of a larger estate in 1897. It reflects Carlton's most significant period of

suburban residential settlement in the Inter-War period, and also the broader expansion of

settlement in the Hurstville area which began in the Federation period, but more notably in

the Inter-War period. Evidence for this is provided by this house, together with nearby

properties at 3, and 7 Cronulla Street.

The house is a well detailed Inter-War house which retains its original architectural and

decorative features, including prominent street facing gables, roughcast render and use of

geometric pattern in the timber posts and leadlight glazing.

It is also one of a relatively small number of Inter-War period houses across the Hurstville

LGA which is well maintained and remains intact. It shows typical characteristics of its type

and is well maintained.


Originally part of the estate of Roberts, the land was purchased by H.Walker and later sold to

Nora Allen who lived in a house built on the property by 1925. It was sold to William Frank

Fisher -Clerk in 1926, who owned and occupied the house into the 1960s.
