Statement of Significance

Built on the banks of the Coliban River in 1861 by the Blyth Bros. It served the traffic to the Mt. Alexander, Castlemaine, Maldon and Bendigo gold diggings. It was destroyed in 1862 by a large explosion and fire, but was rapidly rebuilt. The mill was once part of a much larger complex that had included a brewery and chaff mill.
