Newcastle Ocean Baths' nomination on State Heritage register

05 Nov 2024

City of Newcastle is attending the State Heritage Register Committee today to discuss the nomination to list Newcastle Ocean Baths on the State Heritage Register.

City of Newcastle staff and our consultant heritage architect have been invited to present to the State Heritage Register Committee.

The Newcastle Ocean Baths are currently protected as a heritage item of local significance in the Newcastle Local Environmental Plan 2012.

We look forward to discussing the heritage significance of this site and its proposed inclusion on the State Heritage Register under the Heritage Act 1977.

City of Newcastle acknowledges that we operate on the grounds of the traditional country of the Awabakal and Worimi peoples.
We recognise and respect their cultural heritage, beliefs and continuing relationship with the land, and that they are the proud survivors of more than two hundred years of dispossession.
CN reiterates its commitment to address disadvantages and attain justice for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples of this community.
