Summary

This area of Landsborough Flats has been used variously over the years for cattle grazing, a camp site for deer stalking parties and as a base for government deer culling.

The Rangers Hut was constructed in 1941 to provide accommodation for government deer cullers.

This assessment investigates the history of the Landsborough Rangers Hut and the integrity of its fabric. Recommendations are made to guide decisions on its future management.
