12 Saint George Square

12 St. George Square, colloquially referred to as Number Twelve, 12 St. George's or St. George Square, is the official residence and private office of the First Minister of Berringsland. In colonial times, this large Georgian Town House served as the official residence of the Lieutenant-Governor of Norfolk Island. It is adjoined, for this purpose, to the Colonial Town Hall of Madaline, now serving as the Cabinet Office. Other buildings around St. George Square, with security measures being put in place, are used for the top offices of the Government. First Minister Roland Knightly was the first First Minister to be tenant to the building; however, during his tenure as First Minister of the Provisional Government, he only used it if for some reason he was prevented from going home to his private Madaline home at 21 Tasman Street.

12 St. George's has quickly come to symbolise the dignity of the office of First Minister, with important statements being made when the First Minister leaves the house instead of the previous practice of making statements upon leaving the Madaline Corn Exchange. The first time this was put into practice was when Knightly announced he was about to seek dissolution of the Provisional Assembly from a lectern in front of the building.
