DESCRIPTION
Details (Known As) Former Glover's Store and Dwelling
Registered Name Former Glover's Store
Significance Built in 1855 by Henry Wylie as a store and dwelling, this is Auburn's oldest remaining commercial building. It is an interesting example of a store and dwelling of vernacular form and construction, with much of both the interior and exterior in virtually original form. Auburn has a significant history, beginning life in 1850 as a stopping place on the Gulf Road from the rich Burra copper mines to Port Wakefield, and this building is a link to those early years when transport was the town's economic life-blood.

Disclaimer

While due care has been taken to ensure that the SA Heritage Places Database accurately reflects the South Australian Heritage Register and listings of Local Heritage Places in Council areas, the State of South Australia does not accept liability for the use of the SA Heritage Database for any purpose. Users should consult the Department for Environment and Water - Heritage South Australia to confirm the listing of State Heritage Places and the Planning and Design Code or their local council for Local Heritage Places.

In the majority of cases, the maps of State Heritage Places on this web site show the footprints of the most significant structures on a registered Place. However, sometimes they simply indicate the complete area of land comprising the Place. Work is proceeding to further refine the mapping of such places. It is also important to note that development control is not limited to the registered structures but extends to their setting and structures nearby (what is termed ‘development affecting’ a State Heritage Place). Hence it is vital that exact details of the listed place and implications for any proposed development be discussed with Heritage South Australia staff, as they cannot be deduced solely from the information on this web site. The inclusion of a place in the SA Heritage Register gives no right of public access. Permission to visit properties must be sought from the owners. The accuracy of the mapping of State Heritage Places is not guaranteed. Please contact Heritage SA ( https://www.environment.sa.gov.au/topics/heritage/sa-heritage-register) if you believe there is an error.
