Description: Beverley Station Gallery and Platform Theatre is a multi-purpose cultural precinct in the centre of the Beverley townsite. It was built in 1886 in Victorian Tudor style. Originally the Railway Station was a hub of activity when Beverley was an important stop on the Perth to Albany passenger line. Closed in October 1984, the Railway Station fell into disrepair, but after much hard work by both the community and council it was beautifully restored in 2006. In 2007, the Beverley Railway Station was the winner of the Heritage Council of Western Australia award for Conservation of a Place on the State Register of Heritage Places. The Station now displays the Shire of Beverley Art Collection and you can also buy artwork or talk with an artist in residence. Venture beyond the gallery to the Platform Theatre and see the amazing amphitheatre and stage, where many events are held.
