STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE

This building at 100-100A Pakington Street is a significant two storey structure exibiting early designorigins such as the angled corner and decorative ashlar coursing and the original fine architectural window details rarely used in Geelong buildings prior to 1860. It is a tangible reminder of how a small business, such as a bakery, served the local population.

It is of Regional Significance.
