The earliest Maidstone Police Station operated on Ballarat Road, address later confirmed as 130 Ballarat Road. Heritage discussions note that the station moved around the corner into Short Street in 1956. It is possible the Ballarat Road building was extended at the rear, facing Short Street, and the operational entrance shifted. The station served Maidstone and Braybrook during the peak years of public housing expansion. Both the Ballarat Road and Short Street police station buildings are now private residencesLocals recall it as the place where many residents obtained their driver’s licences in the 1960s–1970s.5358.01 - Maidstone Police Station Ballarat Road Cnr Short Street 1956 Photo 01.jpg 5358.02 - Maidstone Police Station Ballarat Road Cnr Short Street 1956 Photo 01.jpgmaidstone police station, ballarat road, maidstone

Black and white photograph taken by CSIRO Division of Building Research The Building Material Research Section was established in 1945 and operated for five years, before becoming the Division of Building Research in 1950 whose purpose was to conduct research and development in many aspects of the building industry in order to increase efficiency and effectiveness. In 1988, following the McKinsey-assisted restructuring of CSIRO, the Division of Building Research merged with the Highett-based Division of Energy Technology (mark I) to form the Division of Building, Construction and Engineering. Its goal was to work towards improving and supporting industries related to the built environment. See https://csiropedia.csiro.au/manufacturing-technology-1980-97/

Maidstone began as an 1858 speculative township on Ballarat Road, grew slowly due to isolation from rail transport, then expanded rapidly in the 20th century through tram extensions, defence industries, migrant hostels, and Housing Commission estates.Today it is a diverse, residential‑industrial suburb shaped by waves of working‑class settlement, post‑war migration, and late‑20th‑century redevelopment. Early Foundations (1840s–1860s- The broader district saw activity from the 1840s, including Joseph Raleigh’s meat‑preserving works on the Maribyrnong River, which sat on the boundary of what became Maidstone. - Land speculator J.W. Thompson launched the township with great fanfare, including a German band and a banner proclaiming “Every man his own landlord.” - Despite the marketing, by 1860 only about ten homes existed. - - Maidstone grew slowly because it was isolated from the railway, relying instead on punts across the Maribyrnong River. - A National School opened in 1858, but the area remained sparsely settled. - The district’s early industrial landscape included: - Raleigh’s meat works (1843) - Victorian Powder Magazine, later expanded for military use These sites later became part of Pipemakers Park and the Living Museum of the West. - The arrival of trams from Footscray in 1921 finally unlocked residential growth. - A Progress Association formed, and the suburb gained amenities including its own cinema in the 1940s. - Housing stock from this era included weatherboard, Art Deco, and Californian Bungalow homes.

There were two Maidstone Police Stations, with the earlier one operating in Ballarat Road, before 1956, though the exact address isn’t given in the retrieved material. A Facebook heritage discussion notes that the station moved around the corner into Short Street in 1956. Perhaps the Ballarat Road building was extended out the back which faced Short Street. This picture appears to be Ballarat Road site. Both sites are now private residences. This photographs records the old small police stations that served the local community.5676 - Ballarat Rd 130 - Maidstone Police Station 1956 Photo 01.jpg ballarat road, maidstone, maidstone police station, short street
