Statement of Significance
Significant of the mining era and the Boom Period, this building of 1888, architect C D Figgis, has an ornately classical two storey facade surmounted by a balustrade, central pediment and urns (some slightly defaced) in which a wide central arch with a domical reveal leads into the large central hall of the former Exchange where brick arcaded booths along both sides are surmounted by similarly arched clerestory windows at first floor level and a curved iron roof on iron trusses. The ornamental iron verandah was removed in 1964; recent alterations to the shop fronts are excluded from the Classification.
