  • West Melbourne Heritage Review Statements of Significance 2016
    MELBOURNE PLANNING SCHEME Incorporated Document West Melbourne Heritage Review Statements of Significance 2016 This document is an incorporated document in the Melbourne planning Scheme pursuant to section 6(2)(j) of the Planning and Environment Act 1987 HERITAGE REVIEW AREA INCORPORATED DOCUMENTS - CLAUSE 81 - SCHEDULE 2 J. Gadsden Pty. Ltd. factory 17-37 Abbotsford Street, WEST MELBOURNE New grading system: Significant Place type: Factory Date(s): 1926 View of place: 2015 Statement of Significance What is significant? The construction of this complex began in 1926 when an application was lodged by architect, Frank Stapley, for the erection of a factory for J.G. Gadsden Pty. Ltd., canvas manufacturer. The two-storey brick building faced Abbotsford, Adderley and Ireland Streets. An estimated ₤2898 was expended in 1944 for a single-storey addition at the Ireland Street end of the complex to what was then a food can making factory. The founding director of J. Gadsden Pty. Ltd., Jabez Gadsden, arrived in Australia from England in 1879. He worked for bag manufacturer Joseph Joyce in Melbourne, being made partner in 1884. Five years on the partnership was dissolved and Gadsden became the sole proprietor. The company moved from bag manufacture to can-making and eventually general packaging materials, with some twelve factories manufacturing textile bags and similar articles in Australia and New Zealand by the time of Jabez Gadsden’s death in 1936. They had also become mattress manufacturers. In the 1950s, newspaper accounts noted that the company had pioneered the lucrative tinned food industry in the Southern Hemisphere. During the Boer War and World War One, Gadsdens sent thousands of sandbags to protect soldiers in Africa and Europe.
