Places by Region

The table below highlights some of the places around Western Australia with an engineering story. Those in bold at the top of the table have been recognised by Engineering Heritage Australia (EHA) as places of engineering heritage significance through the awarding of a marker under the various Heritage Marker Programs. These places are also separately listed by year of award on the Engineering Heritage Recognition Program webpage.

There are many more sites in Western Australia with an engineering story. To assist EHWA circulated an email in April 2020 requesting assistance. For further information please refer to the contents of the email. WA places yet to be documented are listed on this page.
