Read source trail🏭 Heritage-listed building
Built: c.1870 · NIAH rating: Regional
This public house is one of a group of five structures, three in this terrace and two on the opposite side of street, with cast-iron brattishing - cast-iron balustrade - at parapet level. The Strand House and its two neighbours on the southeast side of the North Strand are notable for this feature and the decorative stucco surrounds to the upper floor windows. Despite insertion of modern fabric and a loss of historic detailing, the overall character has been retained. The quality of the external detailing makes an important contribution to the streetscape.
