Description:
Hawkesbury Heritage is a beautifully produced historical record of the buildings, people, and pivotal events that shaped New South Wales’ Hawkesbury region. Authored by Stan Stevens and published by the Hawkesbury Shire Council in 1984, this large-format volume features colour photographs, maps, and archival portraits to document the rich architectural and social history of the district.

Not just a building-by-building survey, this is also a narrative of community—linking historic structures with the lives and milestones of the people who lived in and around them.

Why You’ll Love It:
Perfect for researchers, architects, heritage professionals, and anyone with a love for the Hawkesbury region or colonial Australian architecture. The presentation certificate adds a layer of historical provenance tied to the Telecom Australia network and Richmond NSW — making this an especially unique collectible.
