An exceptionally intact and very fine shopping complex of 1925 by the architect W P Knights, designed around a central atrium with a barrel-vaulted glazed roof: still retaining in the atrium the original commemorative plaques, the decorative cement work, and quantities of green glazed tiling, while the street front retains its cantilevered awning and some of the decorative pressed metal lining, notable in front of the Men's Store, which is a period specimen with its original diapered coloured glazing in the toplight, and somewhat later display windows and lettering.

Historic Area Statement of Significance: Terang is significant in several respects: the extent and richness of its early twentieth century commercial architecture in comparison to other country towns; its picturesque setting and exotic tree plantings; and the buildings, avenues and monuments which are a legacy of its strong community ideal. Terang's townscape comprises an unsual, attractive and harmonious juxtaposition of two important and conflicting ideals in Australian history; the patronage of the self-styled landed gentry, and the communal aspirations of the villagers and yeomanry who also flourished in this unusually fertile locality.
The precincts which are most central to this character are the High Street town centre, the major avenues, Bradshaws Hill and the dry Lake Terang, and the Railway Station precinct.
