State Butchers Shop, Roma, Heritage-listed butcher shop in Roma, Australia
The single-story brick building at 75 Arthur Street features a shop area, cold room, preparation spaces, and traditional commercial architecture from 1919.
The Queensland Government established this butcher shop in 1919 as part of a network of 90 state-operated meat retailers during World War I.
The building represents Queensland's early 20th-century initiative to provide fair-priced meat to communities through government-operated retail establishments.
Now operating as Ladbrook's Butchery, the structure maintains its original purpose as a meat retailer serving the Roma community.
This facility stands as one of the few purpose-designed state butcheries constructed in Queensland, featuring higher construction costs than similar establishments.
