The straining shed of the sewage farm was preserved from the 1970s land sale.
As such the Islington Sewage Farm Straining Shed (34.874°S 138.579°E) was state heritage-listed in 1984 because it represents "part of a comprehensive waste treatment process of the late 19th century."
The building is also an example of how seemingly basic public infrastructure of the era was designed and built to be visually eminent and symbolic of civic pride.
It is sited about 400 m (1,300 ft) southeast of Sunnybrae Farm near Pedder Crescent in view of Regency Road.
