This little hospital was constructed at the height of World War II in the railway town of Werris Creek. It has been extended a number of times but the original section still shows its inter-war design influences as well as the wartime austerity measures applied to the building materials used. The entrance features the classic Californian Bungalow double gable motif. The place was originally clad in fibrolite sheeting and roofed with corrugated asbestos. The asbestos roof is gone but the fibrolite remains. The ends of the building were clad in rusticated weatherboard.
