Statement of Cultural Heritage Significance:

AHC CITATION Titanga near Lismore was origianlly part of the Mt Elephant No 2 pastoral lease of 1838 and acquired in 1859 by Scottish born graziers Wilson and Buchanan. The property was divided into the freeholds Gala and Titanga in 1871. Geelong architects Davidson and Henderson designed the restrained Italianate style single storey basalt homested, cottage and woolshed in 1872 for Alexander Buchanan. The elaborate verandah was added c. 1880. Titanga is a long established and noted pastoral property with important associations with many pioneer Scottish squatters including Alexander Buchanan and J L Currie. On this celebrated merino sheep run the concept of eucalypt plantation shelter belts was devised. Direct descendants of Currie have developed the house paddock into one of Australia's largest private collections of eucalypts. The restrained Victorian Italianate homestead with manager's cottage and woolshed is a notable work of Davidson and Henderson. Titanga homestead, manager's cottage, woodshed and eucalypt park are beautifully maintained in virtually original condition. Of State significance.
