Queensland heritage register: mapped and official checks

Use the official Queensland Heritage Register to confirm a state heritage listing, and check local council records separately. MapMyLot Pro displays mapped Queensland heritage listings alongside the parcel boundary, helping you see their location and other available property information in one place.

How to check a Queensland address against the heritage register

Search the address, then tap the Heritage layer pill. Where the parcel intersects a Queensland Heritage Register listing - like the McDonnell & East Ltd Building shown above, a heritage-listed building on George Street in Brisbane's CBD - MapMyLot draws the listed area on the map so you can see exactly what it covers.

What the readout shows

Tapping the Heritage pill adds a heritage indicator to the property readout alongside the boundary, lot size, and proximity data from the same address search.

What a Queensland heritage listing means

The Queensland Heritage Register is maintained under the Queensland Heritage Act 1992 and lists places assessed as having state-level cultural heritage significance - a higher bar, and a different register, than a local council heritage list. A state listing generally requires approval before demolition, removal, or any works that could materially affect the place's heritage significance. Because conditions are set individually per listing, the register entry for that specific place is the source to check, not a general assumption.

Complementing the official register

The Queensland Heritage Register search is the legally authoritative source for confirming a listing. MapMyLot's value is speed and context: the same address search that shows heritage status also returns the property's mapped boundary and lot area and its distance to nearby parks, water, and powerlines.

Is my area covered?

MapMyLot's heritage layer is live across all of Queensland, alongside New South Wales, Victoria, the ACT, and the UK (England only). It is not yet loaded for Tasmania, New Zealand, or Canada. If an address sits outside Queensland, see the heritage-listing pillar guide for the full coverage list.
