Statement of Significance
Blue Bell Tearooms & Greengrocer (fmr) makes a significant contribution to the commercial history of Brookton town.
History
The Tyrer family were associated with mail, school bus and building services in Brookton, and Jimmy Tyrer bought 4
shops in 1947 starting a greengrocery with a set of scales and a bag of Swedes- (maybe this building?). About that
time he also had the Agency to sell Austin cars. In 1949 he was also involved in the school bus service, and in 1949,
sold his shops to purchase Montgomery’s buildings. In 1950 E. Robinson from Ballarat took over the Bluebell
Tearooms, part of the post war influx of confidence in Brookton’s future.
