The facade includes a stepped parapet with distinctive traditional lettering, a central front door and large almost symmetrically arranged windows. The location, on a main road, and next door to a hotel suggests that the site has been used for some form of transport for some time. The Schramm family established the service station during the Interwar years. The surviving livery of the building suggests that it was a Caltex service station. There has been no architect or builder identified as being associated with the buildings. The service station is in good condition and retains an excellent degree of integrity. How is it significant?
