1857 Bank of Vic Beechworth - Smith & Watts
1858 English born William Wilkinson Wardell (1823-1899) arrived in Melbourne, Australia in 1858. Having already established himself in England as an ecclesiastical architect, he became one of Melbourne's most significant early architects. Soon after arrival he was appointed chief architect for the colonial government of Victoria and later became inspector-general of public works overseeing many of Melbourne's early major projects. Despite these official positions, he continued his private practice.
An exponent of the Gothic Revival movement, W W Wardell's churches include
St Patrick's Cathedral and St Ignatius Church in Richmond in Melbourne, and
St Mary's Cathedral in Sydney.
W W Wardell also designed Melbourne's Government House and the Venetian styled banking chambers for the ES&A bank.
1859 saw the building of the old ES&A Bank Kiama a large, austerely simple, two-storey, white Georgian house with cedar skirtings, architraves, doors and windows and oregon floorboards. Built originally as a store - the largest in the district. 1859 the ES&A Bank Kiama rented office space within the building.
1850s/60sVictoria Stores were once located at the rear of the ES&A Kiama building.
1875 this adjunct to ES&A Kiama was pulled down, probably when the ES&A Bank purchased the entire ES& Kiama building in 1875
1861-1876 L. Smith, in combination with various partners, including Johnson and Watts, was architect for the Bank of Victoria, and the banks designed show great diversity.
As a group, the banks designed by Smith and his partners epitomise the best qualities of conservative classicism and as such are regarded as important.

1884 ES&A, 135 Queen Street, Berry Photo by Frank Chapman. William Wilkinson Wardell
The Berry ES&A bank is a fine example of one of Wardell's more modest projects. 1884 when ES&A Kiama was designed was at a time when WWWardell was expressing 'his newly discovered love for Italianate,
Palladian and Venetian architecture'. See NSW State Heritage website for more details. Statement of Significance: The Berry Museum, former E.S. & A Bank building, is of State Heritage significance through association as ES&A Kiama was designed in 1884 by the prominent Victorian architect William Wilkinson Wardell.
The ES&A Kiama building is an aesthetically distinctive building designed in the Victorian Gothic or Scottish Baronial style and provides a significant landmark in the township of Berry.
The architectural style and detail of the ES&A Kiama building clearly expresses Wardell's design philosophy and provides an important research resource relating to late Victorian period architecture.
ES&A Kiama's building's heritage significance at a State level is enhanced by the rarity of the item, it is one surviving example of Wardell's suburban and regional Banks, built in the small scale with Northern European architectural influences. As such it is a benchmark example, which demonstrates the principle characteristics of this group of five buildings characterised by the warmth and domesticity of architectural design and scale.

The ES&A 135 Queen St building is unusual with an asymmetrical stepped facade and interesting casement windows.
