Windback Wednesday - Howitt's General Store

Howitt’s multi-purpose business was located at 560 Magill Road in Magill. It included a general store, corn store, weighbridge, chaff mill, bakery and stables. Part of the stables can still be seen today at the rear of the property.

Pictured is the store in 1906, you can see the old Magill School (now Pepper Street Arts Centre) behind the cart. Photo from Burnside Local History Collection.
