Stanthorpe Post Office is the first post office in Queensland, and possibly Australia, to be built after the federation of the Australian colonies in January 1901. The single storey brick building has a tall clock tower on the street corner with the words STANTHORPE POST OFFICE in relief. The Maryland St facade has a large arched window with the Royal coat of arms directly above, entry is through a large arched corner opening beneath the tower.
