🏭 Heritage-listed building
Built: c.1790 · NIAH rating: Regional
Capel Street was laid out in 1680 by Humphrey Jervis as a prestigious residential street and named after Arthur Capel, Earl of Essex. By 1800 the street had become one of the citys principal commercial thoroughfares with the current plot ratios reflecting the layout of that period. This building retains its nineteenth-century proportions and a traditional mid-nineteenth-century shopfront. Trading as a music shop since c.1830, the ground floor has been recently converted into a pub with the retention of the shopfront, interior and window display, maintaining the appearance of what was the longest functioning shop in the city and adding to the overall charm of this historic streetscape.
