Municipal Inventory	Adopted	09 Jul 2001	Category 2	Category 2 The place is considered to have a high level of significance to the City of Kalgoorlie-Boulder and valued by the local community. Maximum encouragement to conserve the significance of the place should be provided to the owner under the town planning scheme.

Statement of Significance

The place makes a valued contribution to the visual character of this important streetscape in its verandah cover over the pavement and its decorative parapet. The building contributes to the masonry 'wall' of Hannan Street. The site is representative of retailing at the turn-of-the-century and is significant for its form and continuity of use.

Physical Description

A single-storey building built to the building line of Hannan Street.

The feature of the exterior of the building is the highly decorative parapet above a highly decorative entablature. The pediment is crowned with three semi-circular pediments featuring classical mouldings. The pediment detail is unique, depicting a bull that represented the original butcher shop function.

Typical features that characterise the building's period are the recessed entrances with large display windows on each side with stall boards below and highlight windows above, and a verandah that extends across the facade and over the pavement. The verandah roof is supported by ornate columns with ornate brackets.

History

Established as a butcher's shop, and until recent years, continued that function.
