Statement of Significance
The principal feature on the site is a six-storey brick building, formerly used principally for the storage of tea chests and still retaining vestiges of the hydraulic lifts which made such a development possible.
The Tea House is a rare example of late nineteenth century "high-rise" development outside the central business district and one of the few sites in South Melbourne to be serviced by the Melbourne Hydraulic Power Company's mains.
The site is also significant for its associations with both the Langlands and Fulton foundry companies - the successors to the first foundry and engineering works established in Victoria in 1842.
