Great Fingall Mine office, heritage-listed building in Day Dawn, Western Australia

The Great Fingall Mine office is a single-storey stone building in the Federation Italianate style, built around 1902 at Day Dawn. It housed both the administrative and assay offices of the Great Fingall Consolidated Gold Mining Company. Its verandahs have been removed and the fabric has weathered through decades without use.

The Great Fingall Mine office was built from stone around 1902 in the Federation Italianate style, during the Western Australian gold rushes, to house the administrative and assay offices of the Great Fingall Consolidated Gold Mining Company. The adjacent mine closed in 1918, and the office and eventually the whole town of Day Dawn were abandoned. The mine reopened in the mid-1990s.

The building's name comes from the Great Fingall Consolidated Gold Mining Company, which ran the adjacent mine. Its co-located administrative and assay offices are described as a rare surviving arrangement, and the Shire of Cue has since about 2000 sought to move the building to Cue for restoration and public display.

The site is located in Day Dawn near the town of Cue and is now a protected heritage location with limited public access. Visitors should be prepared for isolated terrain with scattered remnants of the abandoned town and exposure to wind and open landscape.

This is now the only substantial building remaining in Day Dawn while the rest of the town has vanished completely. The advancing open cut mine threatens its survival as the pit edge gradually wears closer to the structure year after year.
