The Farm Complex at 99 McMahons Road, Balliang is of local historical and aesthetic significance to the Shire of Moorabool. Why is it significant? The Farm Complex at 99 McMahons Road, Balliang is of local historical significance for its demonstration of the early settlement of Balliang and as part of the Staughton Vale Estate. Balliang was created in 1908 when the Victorian Government acquired 9,838 acres from the pastoralist, S. F. Staughton and subdivided the land for closer settlement. George Peters took up the original lease in 1908, at the beginning of the settlement scheme, but the substantial Victorian house was not constructed on the site until 1913. With the retention of a number of outbuildings, some pre-dating the construction of the house, the property is of historical significance for demonstrating the workings of a farm in the early 20th century.
