Campbell Street runs through Ararat’s historic grid, flanked by the bluestone Sub‑Treasury & Assay Office (1858) and the former Gold Warden’s wooden office that once stood there, echoing the town’s 1850s gold‑rush heritage. The streetscape is marked by the same Victorian‑era stone and brick fabric that characterises much of the centre, reflecting the period when the settlement grew rapidly after the 1857 gold discovery. The street benefits from Ararat’s road network, linking quickly to the Western and Pyrenees Highways and to the nearby railway station that provides V/Line services to Ballarat and Melbourne. Within a short drive are local amenities such as the regional hospital, the Ararat Regional Art Gallery and the Gum San Chinese Heritage Centre, while the Hopkins Correctional Centre and Ararat Prison lie just under 2 kilometres away.
