The wool industry has played a significant role in the development of Victoria and Australia, and wool stores have been one of the most prominent building types in Melbourne's West. (Criterion A4) The scale of the architecture of these buildings reflect the prosperity of the firms and the great contribution of the wool industry to Australia's trade and growth in the post war period. The location of the stores on railway lines which provide access to the Melbourne ports and the pastoral land in the north and west of the state is indicative of the way in which the export wool industry has been controlled by intermediary agents.
Architecturally this building represents the epitome of wool store design with the functional married seamlessly to the decorative. (Criterion F1)
