The eucalyptus distillery is historically significant at a LOCAL level. It is associated with local eucalyptus industry, especially with the Bray family operations.
The eucalyptus distillery is scientifically significant at a LOCAL level. It appears to demonstrate technological processes no longer generally in use, and has a strong presumption of archaeological research potential.

Former Eucalyptus Distillery, Crown Allotment 32, Upper Daly Road, ST ARNAUD - Physical Description 1
The eucalyptus distillery now consists of a low brick structure with a tall rectangular brick chimney stack at one end. The low brick structure is protected by a modern steel framed and clad roof and there are adjacent late twentieth century sheds clad in corrugated steel.
The brick chimney appears to have been increased in height as there is a slight change in brick type and dimension in the last one fifth of the tower. There is a minor loss of bricks in the top course.
