Magistrates List and SignaturesProvenance and SignifcanceWoodbine was the former Courthouse in Shellharbour Village. It was built from local basalt in 1877, to replace the temporary watch house that had been used since 1861.

In 1908, a Court of Petty Sessions was established at Albion Park and the Mary Street building was no longer needed as a Courthouse.

In 1938, E. Thomas purchased the building and converted it into a private residence. Later owners, the Miller family, named the home after their original Croom property, Woodbine.

Woodbine is the oldest remaining courthouse in Shellharbour City.DonorCormack, Peter
