Statement of Significance
The former Ringwood Fire Station, designed by important architect Cedric Ballantyne, and completed in 1930, is of local architectural and historical significance.
It is notable as one of a group of distinctive fire stations designed in the 1920s by Cedric Ballantyne, an architect best known as the designer of the Regent & Plaza Theatres. The stations are interesting for their combination of Old English details such as red-brick walls, low projecting eaves, terra-cotta shingle roofs, small multi-pane windows, combined with Georgian Revival symmetry, massing and proportions.
Historically, the Ringwood Fire Station is important as one of the few prominent early public buildings remaining in the locality.
