| A Listed - State Significance STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE The former Brown Brothers British and Foreign Warehouse was manufactured as a prefabricated iron structure by an unknown foundary and imported and erected in 1854 for G and WH Brown, importers and outfitters. Situated on the corner of Ginn and Mercer Streets, Geelong, this two storey iron structure clad with 5" pitch corrugated iron contained Brown's shop and residence above. The facade originally consisting of cast iron and timber components has been altered. The upper segmental facade survives intact. This iron building is principally of importance as a rare surviving example of a once common industrialized building type of the mid nineteenth century. It is of great archaeological significance.
