| The Cranebrook – Olive Trees are unique in the region. The windbreak is a remnant of Samuel and Rosetta Terry’s Mount Pleasant estate, which was established in the 1820s. The trees are located on a ridgeline, and because of this, their canopy, size, and spacing stand out as a prominent feature of the landscape. As a result, they create a distinctive landmark in the area.
In addition to their visual impact, the olive trees (Olea europaea) are scientifically significant due to their age and number, making them valuable in horticultural botany. The track is also important historically, as it is directly linked to the estate. Furthermore, the planting of these trees illustrates the development of large estates in the 1820s and 1830s, especially the creation of expansive landscaped areas during that time. |
