The 1998 heritage survey:[1]

This office building was constructed in the late 19th century. From about 1900 the office was occupied by Rudall & Rudall, Solicitors, until they moved into the adjacent Union Bank building in 1928. Rudall and Rudall was founded by John Rudall, a significant community leader who established himself as a solicitor in Gawler in 1854 and was Town Clerk for Gawler Council from its formation in 1857 until his appointment as Magistrate in 1881. He then served as Gawler's magistrate until 1889, after which time attending magistrates came from Adelaide. In 1881 after John's appointment as Magistrate, the law office was taken over by his son Samuel Bruce Rudall, and the firm has continued in Gawler to the present day. During the 1940s, 50s and 60s Rudell's former office building at 39 Murray Street was the office for the District Council of Munno Para East and later Munno Para.
