===Adye Douglas Fountain Elphin Rd, East Launceston, (Register of the National Estate)=== THR #4154 Adye Douglas Fountain UNIT 1 2 ELPHIN RD LAUNCESTON 7250 Permanently Registered Launceston City Council An elaborate late Victorian cast-iron fountain, originally used for watering horses.
 * A relic from a past age, the fountain was a practical gift to the city of Launceston by the Hon. Adye Douglas in 1883 for the watering of horses and dogs.[[image:http://www.environment.gov.au/cgi-tmp/rt42842-17656.jpeg caption="Adye Douglas Fountain"]]

Combined fountain and street lamp originally, it is an important townscape element.

It was reported by Mr David Mitchell of Historic Scotland that the fountain was manufactured by Walter MacFarlane in Glasgow || ||

Why the messy Heritage Listings Here?
> ===[|Schedule 1 - Local Heritage List - Your Voice. Your ...]=== yourvoiceyour ** launceston ** .com.au/ ** plan ** ningscheme/documents/.../downlo... //Schedule// 1 - //Local heritage list//. >
 * The Tasmanian Heritage Register and Launceston City Heritage Register are 'opaque' and do not link to nomination data-sheets.This is apparently due to 'lack of resources'.
 * The Tasmanian Heritage Register is only available as a download, so web-crawlers cannot index its contents, meaning you can't readily find out if a Tasmanian residence is Heritage Listed.
 * Good luck trying to find the Launceston City Council Heritage Register from the council website, because it isn't there. You need to use a link like this:

Launceston Local Heritage Register mis-matches
 If you read the LCC heritage listings carefully you will see the word 'State' meaning State Heritage Listing such as this: But I have cross-referenced the Tasmanian State Heritage Registered properties immediately before this listing such as: **"THR #4155 Townhouse 3 ELPHIN RD LAUNCESTON 7250** Permanently Registered Launceston City Council" For example, the LCC lists **6 Elphin Road** as 'State' registered, but the THR does not, only **3 Elphin Road** is listed. > of which they wish to remove another 10 entries listed below: > (All of which ten listings are Nationally Heritage Registered, being on the Elphin Street Curve detailed below) >
 * " 6 Elphin Road LAUNCESTON ** State ** 20229 1 6596407"
 * 1) 4155 Townhouse 3 ELPHIN RD LAUNCESTON 7250 Permanently Registered Launceston City Council
 * 2) 4156 Townhouse 5 ELPHIN RD LAUNCESTON 7250 Permanently Registered Launceston City Council
 * 3) 4157 Conjoined Townhouses 9-9A ELPHIN RD LAUNCESTON 7250 Permanently Registered Launceston City Council
 * Thus the LCC Heritage Schedule lists 81 Elphin Road properties as State registered, but the actual State Tasmanian Heritage Register only lists 30 such Elphin Road properties,
 * So does this mean that 81 - 30 = 51 Elphin Road Properties have already been removed from the Tasmanian Heritage Register?
 * Launcestonians, National Trust members, it is time to act!

Warning! Tasmania's Heritage Council is preparing ( 16 December 2015) to remove the following entries from the Tasmanian Heritage Register:

 * 1) Elphin Road, 21, Launceston (THR#4163)
 * 2) Elphin Road, 23, Launceston (THR#4164)
 * 3) Elphin Road, 31, Launceston (THR#4167)
 * 4) Elphin Road, 33, Launceston (THR#4168)
 * 5) Elphin Road, 35, Launceston (THR#4169)

 * Date: 1929 Builder: J. & T. Gunn
 * Launceston's grandest house in the 1930s, Spanish Mission derived style, complete with impressive palm in the front garden.
 * The repetitive yet varying uses of the arch form in plan and elevation on the ground floor give this building a great deal of grace.
 * Camerated concrete used to great effect.
 * THR #4182 Fairlawn 136-138 ELPHIN RD NEWSTEAD 7250** Permanently Registered Launceston City Council
 * Fairlawn is significant as a house, complete with contents, in a garden setting, which provides a comprehensive document of domestic and social life of a substantial middle class family in early twentieth century Launceston.
 * Fairlawn is a single-storey Federation Queen Anne style house set in extensive gardens, an integral part of the whole property design. The house is built of brick, dichromatic in style with red bricks and white brick detailing, the whole tuck pointed. There is a wooden floored front porch and verandah round two sides set on stone footings. The red corrugated iron roof has tall square chimneys and flying gables with timber detailing set over square bay windows. The house was one of the earliest to be electrically wired and retains almost all its original fittings.
 * The house has important historical associations as the family home of the Suttons, a prominent Launceston family. The family has maintained the house sympathetically and it still contains in its fabric much information on domestic technology of the early twentieth century, including the social attitudes to these matters.
 * The garden is historically significant for demonstrating a late nineteenth century Victorian period Villa garden and is aesthetically significant for its high quality of design. The garden at Fairlawn is worthy of separate recognition.
