| What is significant? The mature exotic trees that mark the former site of 'Clestron', the Ogilvy family homestead, at 600 Boolarra South-Mirboo North Road, Mirboo North are significant. The trees include several Elms (Ulmus sp.) in two lines that appear to define the north and west boundaries of the original homestead garden, three Pine (Pinus sp.) including a Canary Island Pine (Pinus canariensis), Hollys (Ilex sp.), and various fruit trees including several Cherry Plums (Prunus domestica). The corrugated iron shed on the site, and adjacent fencing are not significant. How is it significant? The trees marking the former site of 'Clestron' are of local historic significance to South Gippsland Shire. Why is it significant? Historically, the trees are important for their associations with the pioneering Ogilvy family and in particular with Charles Ogilvy who played an important role in the early development of South Gippsland. He was the first Shire Secretary for the Woorayl Shire after it was created in 1888 and held the role for 12 years. In the Mirboo North district he established the first newspaper, campaigned for improvements to roads, and in 1884 provided a building and land for the first Mirboo Central School. The trees are also significant as an illustration of the practice by selectors of developing gardens around homesteads with both ornamental and productive trees. (Criteria A, D & H) The site has scientific significance for its potential archaeological remains, which have the potential to yield further information about the occupation, use and development of this site by the early settlers.
