West Wallsend Heritage Master Plan

West Wallsend is an area with significant historical value allowing a unique opportunity for revitalisation.

Thank you to everyone who participated in this consultation. Council adopted the West Wallsend Heritage Master Plan on Monday 9 February 2021.

The West Wallsend Heritage Masterplan comprises a suite of documents to guide the long-term revitalisation of public space development within the West Wallsend local centre. These include:

The West Wallsend Heritage Management Strategy sets a clear vision and set of heritage design principles based on the local community's aspirations and values for West Wallsend. This vision will form the blueprint for staged improvements to the public realm of West Wallsend, with an overarching intention of reinforcing the unique sense of place and historic character of the township.

In support is the West Wallsend Heritage Streetscape Masterplan, which covers a number of components including recognising and linking sites of heritage significance, pedestrian and cycle connectivity and safe access, street trees, public spaces, heritage nodes and key projects. The purpose of the Master Plan is to guide Council and the local community in the future management, design and improvement of the West Wallsend streetscape.
