Statement of Significance
The Camberwell Police Station and Court House Complex was designed by Public Works Department architect, Percy Everett; the complex was built by WA Medbury between 1938-39. The complex is in the Moderne style and is set on a diagonal axis. The buildings are constructed of red, brown and manganese bricks and contain Everett's trademark pattern detailing. The complex still retains a law enforcement function, as the court house is now used for tribunal work.
