Toowoomba's Post Office, ca. 1874

  • Vesna Verencevic said:
    The heritage listed Post Office in Toowoomba’s city center is one of only four that were built in Queensland in what is called the Classic Revival Style. This architectural style incorporates some of the features of the classical style, such as symmetry and repetition, without being overwhelmingly severe. The Post Office was completed in 1880 using sandstone that was quarried from Spring Bluff, not far from Toowoomba. One of the most striking aspects of the building is the clock tower. The building continued to be the center for mail delivery until 1999 when Australia Post relocated to another site and now it is used for offices and a cafe. Mail delivery was quite a feat in the nineteenth century. While we are quite accustomed to posties on motorbikes, the early European settlers had their mail delivered to Toowoomba first by pack horse and then by horse-drawn coach. The road up the range into Toowoomba is quite steep enough today, but it would have been quite a different story for a horse-drawn coach in the days before sealed roads.
