Description

Item TypephotographDatec1870sContentTaken from Historical note #277 by Don Roderick :
“Post and Telegraph Office that became the Town Hall”

(This building was the original Post Office, located on the corner of Gill and Bow Street, where the present brick Post Office stands.
To make way for that new building, this timber building was shifted to the adjoining allotment and used as the Town Hall until the 1950’s when the Council relocated that facility to the building which became known as City Hall and stands at the intersection of Gill and Mosman Streets. This wooden two storey building was demolished in the 1960s and replaced with the current Westpac Bank building)
