Warwick Post Office

from State Library of Queensland

• Vesna Verencevic said:

  Warwick Post Office is located on a prominent corner site to Grafton and Palmerin Street, which is the city's main thoroughfare and shopping precinct. It replaced an earlier post office designed in a quasi-Georgian Colonial manner in 1884. It is not clear whether this earlier post office was on the same site. Warwick Post Office is an example of: * a post and telegraph office with quarters (second generation typology 1870–1929). * the Baroque Revival grand Manner in the 1900s fashion, with some Federation elements. * a large annexe building in a 1940s early Modern-Scandinavian Classicist manner. * the work Queensland Government Architect Andrew BartonBrady, possibly assisted by G D Payne.

Post and Telegraph Office, Kilcoy

from State Library of Queensland

• Vesna Verencevic said:

  The Postal Act of 1825 allowed the governor to fix postage rates and appoint postmasters outside Sydney, enabling the first organised postal service. Letter deliveries began in 1828 and posting boxes first appeared in 1831. … Postal services grew throughout the Australian colonies as they were established. The Kilcoy Post Office has been serving the Kilcoy District since 1913. Source: www.kilcoychamberofcommerce.com.au/business/kilcoy-post-o...
