Old Post Office

The Old Post Office is a three-storey building located at 1-3 Bell Street, constructed of red brick with yellow-brick sill bands and blue-brick impost bands, topped with a hipped slate roof and brick stacks. The building's corner at the road junction is angled, creating a focal point for the shop entrance. This entrance is recessed and flanked by 2-light plate glass shop windows on both streets, all framed by Tuscan pilasters and consoles that support the cornice. The fascia has been replaced. On Bell Street, there is a residential entrance in a panelled recess with a doorcase that mirrors the shop-front detail. The entrance features a panelled door with a plain overlight, although its lower panels have been replaced with plain boarding. The windows are 2-pane sashes set under shallow triangular heads, except for a 2-storey oriel window above the shop entrance, which has double sash windows on each storey, all of which have been recently renewed.

Inside, the original shop fittings remain intact, including two shop counters and a nearly complete set of shelves and drawers built around a simple fireplace. The fittings vary in size, with some shelves supported by turned supports. A half-lit door with coloured glass margin lights leads to the hallway of the residence, while a simpler panel door opens to a store room at the back.
