Viewbank

Although mainly a residential area, there is a small commercial strip on Martins Lane adjacent to Viewbank Primary School.

Stone foundations of the house with remnants of hand-made brick walls, fireplaces and other features were uncovered.

Articles of affluence were also found in the form of a network of servant's bells, fragments of marble fireplaces and decorated plaster cornices were also uncovered.

[5] The site is recognised as having historical and archaeological significance to the State of Victoria, and is listed on the Victorian Heritage Database.

Few pastoral or agricultural buildings survive from the early 20th century, with Mollison Lodge being one of the important exceptions.

[6] There were many rural allotments along the Yarra River, of which the house at 7 Walker Court appears to be an example, making it of local historical significance.

Several new housing developments were built during the 1990s and 2000s, including the end of Martins Lane, Winston Hills and Eagle View (on Casey Crescent).
