Buildings

As Natte Yallock is small, there are no stores or community centres. The locality survives because of its strong links to agriculture, with most of the town's employment being serviced by local farms. The town does have a small primary school, which opened in 1874.[2]

The Pyrenees Shire Council has documented a number of significant buildings in the Natte Yallock area in the Avoca Heritage Study: 1864 - 1994 - Volume 3.[3]
