The Southern Downs Local Heritage Register is a heritage register of sites within the Southern Downs Region of Queensland, Australia. [1]
Under Section 113 of the Queensland Heritage Act 1992, all local government authorities in Queensland must maintain a local heritage register. [2] Following the amalgamation of local government areas that created Southern Downs Region in 2008, it was necessary to create a new local heritage register. Following a cultural heritage study which completed in 2010, a proposed list of local heritage sites was provided for public comment in 2011. [3]
