  • 1873(?) Old Post Office

Post Office in 1901 - I am not convinced about this date as I think that is the Drill Hall around the corner, which dates this photo to after 1915. (Photo courtesy of National Archives of Australia)
Another view of the Post Office - the Lee & Sons sign dates this photo to before 1913
Corner of High & Stephen Street outside the old Post Office in 1918, Arthur Square is in background with War Loan of a Tank and Crew
Snow covered streetscape showing the post office on the right. In 1919 there was the first fall of snow in the township for 30 years, there was also another snow event in 1921 and the next after that was 1941. It would make sense that this photo was taken during the first one in 1919, as it would have been a novelty.
Old Post Office - the Drill Hall on the right dates this photo to after 1915 - the picket fence has been removed and there is now a taller fence in front of the residence. This photo could be 1930s
