In 2005 the Mallala and District Historical committee researched locations around the district where buildings of importance once stood.

With financial assistance from the District Council of Mallala Partnership Program a builder Mr Irvine Smyth was employed and seven cairns were built. The committee researched dates and information which was inscribed on a plaque placed on each cairn.
