[GC2] Diagnosis of the Land
The trees of the Otway forest, as well as the woodlands of the
coastal bush, create stature and connect the landscape with each
town in many ways. Forests and woodlands provide for extensive,
varied ecology and vegetation systems, enriching the soils and
catchment areas surrounding the towns.
Instruction: Planting of trees and vegetation within the town need
to include the local native species to enhance and to connect the
larger forest and woodlands with the inner landscapes of the town.
Relevance to Anglesea:
The Anglesea Heath is surrounding the town, covered with natural
woodland bush, set among hills and valleys. The local residents
refer to the most noticeable character of Anglesea as living at the
‘Beach and Bush’. This natural attribute must be conserved.
