History
[ edit ]
The traditional and custodians of the land are the Wonnarua people.[3]
Approximately 1818 were when the first European settlers arrived. Maitland was central to trade and the growth of the Hunter Region.
Tom White Melville Winder was one of the largest proprietors on the Hunter.[24] [25]
The “Windermere” estate including the grounds were where a cedar forest was used for building materials and other logs were sent along the Hunter River to trade and send cedars to England and Sydney. Windermere estate was established before East Maitland and West Maitland were established.[26]
The history of Maitland is reflected in the buildings including government buildings being established. There are many historic and heritage buildings in the area. Many of these buildings show evidence of the abundant cedar timbers in the area, using these for buildings and furniture. Buildings also use local sandstone.
Maitland grew steadily and quickly became an important regional centre in the Colony . Growth was rapid but recent growth was slower once sea routes were taken over by rail/road routes as preferred modes of transportation. Also original supplies such cedars were used/depleted and other areas of Australia were opened up. Also the waterways today are lessened in size/volume with many formerly abundant creeks dried up or now small drains unable to be traversed by boat.
