The late fire... seems to have altered the idea of building of inflammable materials, and at the present time Mr. Mark Smith, contractor, is engaged in building for Mr. W. Thompson, baker and produce dealer, an extensive structure, the site being about the centre of Herbert street, and at the corner of Bailey-street. It is to be 51 feet by 27, walls 15 feet, of rubble stone, and white dressed freestone facings. The rubble stone is obtained from the contractor's quarry upon Constitution-hill, while the freestone, which is of a very superior description, is obtained from a quarry on the Cassilis Road, thirteen miles from Gulgong. When the building is completed it will be an ornament to the street.
