Criterion D) Characteristic values
                                                                                                                                                                                 The integrity of the fabric, and its functional association with service buildings and other lighthouses.  The Cape du Couedic Lighthouse is part of a relatively intact early nineteenth century complex of lighthouse and service buildings, which contributes to its significance.

Criterion E) Aesthetic characteristics
                                                                                                                                                                                 The prominence of the lighthouse within its landscape setting.                                             The Cape du Couedic Lighthouse is important as a prominent visual landmark on the south-western point of Kangaroo Island.

These heritage values, identified and explained in the Commonwealth Heritage List, will form the basis of the management of Cape du Couedic Lighthouse.

   5.3  Condition and integrity of Commonwealth heritage values
A heritage monitoring program was implemented in 2016. Each site is visited and reviewed every two years where the heritage fabric and values of the site are evaluated. Assessment of the condition and integrity of lighthouse's Commonwealth heritage values are derived from the latest available Heritage asset condition report produced by AMSA's maintenance contractor.
'Condition' is measured from Good-Sound-Poor and incorporates the current condition of the specific value. Integrity is measured from High-Medium-Low and incorporates the value's intactness. Cape du Couedic Lighthouse's Commonwealth heritage values and its associated attributes maintain good condition and high integrity.
The Commonwealth heritage values for Cape du Couedic Lighthouse exhibit good condition and a high level of integrity. The intact lightstation continues to maintain strong associations with the State's maritime history, and remains a prominent visual landmark free of modern intrusions on the cape.
