Statement of Significance
The former store has high social and historic significance as a commercial business in the town.
Although not in operation it is one of the few such buildings remaining in Yalgoo and therefore has some rarity value. The building also has considerable streetscape value given that it is located on a prominent corner in the town and corresponds in material and colour with the nearby former Police Station and Quarters.
Physical Description
This corner shop/residence building is of timber frame construction and clad with corrugated iron. It features a bull nosed verandah to the east and north elevations of the shop. A double entry door is located on the corner and a timber framed window fronts onto Henty Street. The residence section of the building has a different roof pitch and a verandah enclosure with asbestos sheeting. Windows to this section are louvres.
