When I was a kid, before the Hume Highway was diverted around all the highway towns, we always stopped at Euroa for a pit stop. This building was where we’d get a drink, or fuel, and go to the bathroom. It’s now a pharmacy. This image was taken on the hottest of days, in the middle of the day, in January 2025.
