In the front of this building at 8a Wasleys Road, a saddlery business was operated by Mr. Schaefer. Mr. M.L. Cullen continued with the same business.
In the remainder of this stone building Mr. Joshua Marshman operated a blacksmith and forge business. Mr Lew Lutz later ran a garage on these premises. In the mid 1900s, Mr. Ernest (Sos) East had a dealership for Shearers Co. and an employee Mr Reg Peters made harrows and other small implements.
Adjoining this building on the eastern side was a long iron shed, in which Mr. Wilf Curnow stored his used cars during the 1930's.
The buildings have now been demolished, and for many years the site was known locally as the 'Police Block'
The "Australia Remembers" Park was established in this area in 1995 with trees and shrubs planted around the perimeter and thoughout the area including a path from Wasleys Road though to Redbanks Road. In 2014 it is a very pleasant area and includes a seat provided by the Mallala and District Lions Club.
