History

In 2020 Redwood Park was nominated for Heritage Listing by Scot McPhie.[4] The Toowoomba Regional Council opposed the listing.[5] In March 2021 the Queensland Government announced all of Redwood Park would not be heritage listed, but Eagles Nest Camp, a depression era itinerant workers camp located within Redwood, would be Heritage listed[6]
