This much-altered remnant of the former Wunderlich factory is of local importance as one of the few remaining factories of the 1920s in the Albion area. It represents the once-flourishing 'Garden Industrial' development which H.V. McKay promoted around his Sunshine Harvester Works. Other nearby factories of the period which also featured landscaped grounds included Ajax Nettlefold and Spaldings, but these have been entirely demolished in recent years. Wunderlich is also of local significance as a major manufacturer of building components for the residential boom of the 1920s. Wunderlich terracotta and cement tiles, cement sheets and pressed metal wall and ceiling linings became the standard in many 1920s and 30s bungalows. Wunderlich products were used in many local houses of the period.
