    Bendigo Miliitia Orderly Rooms - Veterans Description for Public

    The former Bendigo Militia Orderly Rooms, on Park Road, comprise of a late colonial timber drill hall. From the period 1884-1901 militia orderly rooms were built by the Victorian Public Works Department and were universally of timber and of similar design. The seminal examples of this era are Ballarat, Bendigo, Castlemaine, Portland and St Kilda whichwere all designed bythe PWD architect, Samuel Bindley. Of the twenty-eight examples of this type built, only eight remain, including Bendigo. This building replaced the original orderly rooms in View Street.
