Merrett Rifle Range Pavilion (Former)

The former Merrett Rifle Range pavilion at Kororoit Creek Road, Williamstown is of local historic and technical significance to the City of Hobsons Bay.

Historically, it is significant for its associations with the early development of the Rifle Ranges on this site. Most of the buildings and infrastructure associated with the Rifle Range have been demolished and the pavilion is now rare surviving evidence, which illustrates the early development of these facilities in Victoria. (AHC criteria A4, B2 and D2)

Aesthetically, it is significant as a fine example of a substantial Victorian pavilion, which demonstrates the importance of the Rifle Ranges in Williamstown. (AHC criteria B2)
