Municipal Inventory | Adopted | 16 Dec 1999 | Category 2 |
The only media building from the 1920's still standing.
A weatherboard, brick and iron buildin which is in a poor condition although it could be restored at a considerable cost.
The site was originally owned by Bertie Johnston and bought by the "Wheatbelt Press" in 1926. The "North Eastern Wheatbelt Tribune" was first published on 16/8/1926 by ED Turley and AE Deacon. The paper wasn't published until 1958 and at that time was named "The Wheatbelt Tribune".
Reasonable Degree, but further research needs to be done.
Poor - The building has suffered neglect and been vacant for a number of years.
