The off form walls, the concrete columns and precast concrete beams combine to form a dramatic architectural character particularly when viewed from inside where light enters from the glazed roof areas and plays on the various angles of the concrete surfaces. The method of housing the locomotives can be easily appreciated and is a demonstration of a past industrial usage.
Off form concrete walls with concrete coumns and precast concrete beams. Roof partly glazed. The round house is a post war building which housed 15 steam locomotives. It remains intact complete with turntable pit and turntable. It is built of off form concrete walls and columns and precast concrete beams which combine to produce a dramatic architectural character. This is probably the only remaining round house in the state.
