Bourke Post Office, Heritage post office in Bourke, Australia.

The Bourke Post Office stands as a two-story Victorian building with cream painted walls on the lower level and reddish-brown brick on top.

The postal facility opened on July 22, 1862, with Joseph Becker as the first postmaster, operating from a building used by Alexander Ross and Company.

The post office functions as a central meeting place for residents of Bourke, providing mail services and maintaining connections between remote communities.

Residents can access mail distribution, banking services, electoral enrollment, and telecommunications at this location during extended business hours including weekends.

The building features a wide, two-story verandah that wraps around multiple facades, with preserved original plaster ceilings and decorated columns.
