Castlemaine Bus Lines, Castlemaine

I love the brickwork on this simple bus depot in Castlemaine.

It is easy to go straight to the roofline, but if you look at ground level, you'll notice the bottom of the wall is made of vari-coloured bricks that are generally darker than the rest of the wall.

Then directly above the windows there are two bands of lighter coloured bricks and finally there are two rows of raised bricks that are, again, lighter in colour campared to the rest of the wall. One sits at the top of the wall while the second, several courses below, mirrors the stepping of the roofline.

Simple elegance.
