🏭 Heritage-listed building

NIAH building record

Built: c.1850 · NIAH rating: National

This public house, with its strangely asymmetric Doric order to the upper floors, retains a particularly fine timber shopfront, with fine carved detailing of artistic significance which is of particular importance within the context of a busy commercial street in which there are many modern replacement shopfronts. The building's lower height, compared to its neighbours, contributes to the variety that is so important to the character of the street. Its finely executed rendered detailing and intact interior are also features of note.
