Registered Name |
Former Victoria Mill Counting House, Office, Weighbridge Office and Stone Wall |
Significance |
This site is one of the few surviving administrative complexes associated with milling in South Australia and is associated with the earliest mill in Gawler, a town which was the second largest milling town in South Australia for most of the 19th century. The site is associated with Walter Duffield, one of the State's most successful millers and also noted as a pastoralist and politician. The Victoria Mill was the first of Duffield's mills and the remaining buildings of this complex give an insight into the scale and operations of early flour milling in South Australia which is not well represented elsewhere.
