History

Old Kilmore Gaol was built in 1857 under the supervision of Charles Pasley.^[2] It was a gaol from 1859 until 1891 when it was decommissioned and used as a butter factory.^[3]^[2]^[3] In the 1960s it became a private home and was a restaurant in the 1990s before reverting again to a private home in 2004.^[4] Today, the gaol is used for commercial purposes.^[3] Its bluestone walls and exterior appearance are the only original features that have been retained.^[5]

Heritage significance

It appears on the Heritage Council of Victoria's Victorian Heritage Database, for being "one of a small group of early Victorian prisons to be built outside of Melbourne." and "for its long use as a centre of dairy production and distribution ... and for its contribution to Kilmore's rare group of Basalt public buildings."^[6] and is listed on the Register of the National Estate.^[7]
