Dining Area flowers combining the local post officeA corrugated iron ceiling, blackened with mould, hangs low over the collapsed dining room of the Big Hill Post Office residence. A timber dresser, upturned buckets, a green drum, scattered newspapers, and a brick fireplace buried under timber debris are all that remain. The building operated as a rural post office and postmaster's residence from 1 November 1869 until 1945. Part of the Big Hill Post Office series.
