West End Gasworks, Industrial heritage site in West End, Australia

The West End Gasworks occupies a large industrial complex at 321 Montague Road, featuring cylindrical structures and mechanical equipment for gas production.

The South Brisbane Gas and Light Company established the gasworks in 1885 to meet the growing energy demands of Brisbane's expanding population.

The facility represents a key period in Queensland's industrial development when gas production supported street lighting and residential energy needs.

The site maintains connections to the local gas network and stands as an educational resource for understanding historical energy infrastructure.

The gasworks contains the last remaining spiral guide gasholder in Queensland, marking the evolution of gas storage technology.
