Mellors Drapery and Haberdashery, Heritage shop in Gayndah, Australia

Mellors Drapery and Haberdashery is a single-story concrete building with a symmetrical rectangular layout and large display windows at 28 Capper Street. The shop sells fabrics, notions, and textiles from different categories for everyday and special occasions.

The building was completed in 1922 and replaced an earlier store destroyed in major fires on Gayndah's main street in 1921. The new structure was part of the town's rebuilding after this disaster.

The interior is one large space split along its central axis by a row of timber posts and a beam running front to rear, with men's departments east of the axis and women's west. The store's name panel sits in the raised central bay of the parapet. Overells held a 50th anniversary sale across all its stores in June 1933.

The shop is active and listed as a heritage site in Gayndah, easily visited in the town center on foot. Visitors can view the display windows from outside or step inside to see the original retail layout and items being sold.

The shopfront has three large display windows split by two recessed entries, each with double timber doors opening straight into the single interior space. Above the windows a strip of obscure fixed glass lets daylight in. The parapet carries the store's name in a raised central panel.
