The former Foster Court House and police stables, designed by the Public Works Department and constructed in 1889-90, at 33 Station Road, Foster.
Why is it significant?
The former Foster Court House and police stables are of local historic significance to South Gippsland Shire.
As the first building in the Shire constructed by the Public Works Department the Court House is highly important in demonstrating both the early importance of Foster as a local commercial centre following the 'gold rush' to this area, as well as the beginnings of government and community facilities in the Shire. As the only surviving evidence of the first police station in Foster, the former stables are important for their ability to further illustrate and assist in interpreting the history of this site.
