Albany Bell Castle, Heritage site and factory in Mount Lawley, Western Australia.
The Federation-style building at 86 Guildford Road features red brick details, corner towers, and castellations across its two-story structure with basement levels.
Built between 1914 and 1919, the factory produced cakes and confectionery for Bell's tearooms across Perth, Fremantle, Kalgoorlie, and Coolgardie regions.
The design drew inspiration from both the Cadbury factory in Bournville and the Ghirardelli Chocolate factory in San Francisco, emphasizing worker-friendly conditions.
The property utilized natural springs that provided 100,000 gallons of fresh water daily for its manufacturing operations at just two miles from Perth.
The facility included specialized freezer rooms powered by compressed-gas engines and a basement with double-brick cavity walls for chocolate production.
