Former Stock and Station Agency

A rural produce depot was opened on this site in 1991, by local pioneer John Neville, and operated until 1930. It had other uses over time, but was left to deteriorate for many years, until purchased by volunteers for use as a museum.

The Powderhorn Museum, in the main building, was opened by the son of John Neville in November 1975.

The adjoining Milvale School building, formerly Wallundry, was given to the Stockinbingal Advancement Association, whose members were running the museum, by the state Government on the condition it was moved to the Museum Grounds. It was moved by the voluntary labour and used as the second room of the Museum from 1978.

The Museum was closed in 2002, and later the building was leased by Council for commercial uses, including an antiques store and a Cafe.
