DescriptionThe former Shellharbour Council Chambers is one of the oldest government buildings in the Illawarra. Matthew Dinning constructed the building in 1865 of local basalt, on land originally granted to D’Arcy Wentworth.

The first Council meeting held in this building was in 1866 and it continued to serve as Chambers until 1896 when Council moved its base to Albion Park.
