Statement of Significance
The corner site of the Old London Inn was purchased by S.G. Henty at the first land sales. Between 1842 and 1846 Henty erected a small stone store on the site which was licensed in 1847. In the early 1850's the structure was considerably extended with the addition of a second storey, and alterations to the facade. The building has since the first years of settlement been a favourite meeting place; the first meeting of the Portland Municipal Council was held here in February 1856. It is one of the town's oldest buildings and an intact example of the early colonial style Inn in Victoria.
