THE LOMBARD Heritage

🏭 Heritage-listed building

Built: c.1820 · NIAH rating: Regional

The high quality Victorian shopfront with its pink granite detailing is an excellent example of contemporary architectural taste and fashions. Details including geometric carvings, stop-chamfering, splayed window aprons and channelled quoins demonstrate quality craftsmanship. The canted entrances cleverly addresses its corner site, while the parapet height, fenestration arrangement and quoins which are shared with the neighbouring buildings bring continuity to the streetscape. This site was developed by the last quarter of the eighteenth century, before the width of the street was set in 1812 by the Wide Street Commissioners. Lombard Street was laid out in the mid- to late-eighteenth century and was a sparsely-developed area formerly known as Hervey’s Yard. The corner of this street and Pearse Street (formerly Great Brunswick Street), was partially developed at that time but was redeveloped in the early-nineteenth century.
