Wellington Post Office

The two-story building on Maughan Street features Federation Arts and Crafts architecture with a harmonious blend of sandstone and brick materials.

Constructed between 1869 and 1904 under James Barnet's supervision, this post office replaced the first postal service that began operating in Wellington in 1838.

The structure represents the development of communication services in rural New South Wales, near lands traditionally belonging to the Wiradjuri people.

The facility provides postal services, passport applications, and international money transfers, with extended operating hours including weekends for local convenience.

Archaeological resources beneath the building may contain remnants from the original 1868 post office structures and associated colonial-era constructions.
