Statement of Significance

This is an important stand of trees located in the main street of Mallacoota and is a well known landmark contributing significantly to the landscape. Due to uncontrolled parking and the resultant soil compaction many of the trees show terminal dieback.<EM>. Angophora floribunda</EM> is widely distributed in south-eastern Queensland throughout eastern New South Wales apart from the northern coast, and extends just into this area of Mallacoota
