Statement of Significance

The Utikka barn ruins have local significance as an example of substantial early rural farm building and a site of European Settlement. Although in a ruinous condition, the building still reveals the type and style of construction of its era.

Physical Description

Located on the west side of the road in a paddock, the barn is in ruins. It consists of stone walls, partly rendered, which indicate the roof was a low pitched gable roof. Sheets of corrugated iron lie in a pile nearby.

History

The farming property, formerly owned by the Callaghans, is now owned by the Eastoughs (Local Knowledge).
