The current building was built in 1930, taking the place of the original timber factory constructed in 1915.
A brick building, approximately 60 feet by 70 feet, which comprised the butter roller, churn room, cold storage room, testing room and a pasteurising room which was not included in the old building. Present churns were utilised as well as installation of a Flash pasteurising system, vats and cream cooler.
Spiralling production costs and a decline in dairying forced the closure in 1975. Since then it has been a pottery and in 2005 became an Arts Centre, used for local and touring exhibitions.
