General notes:
Grading as at 1991 : DPeriod : Early Victorian (1870-1872)Grantee : Allison and Knight 1853Over a period of two years (1870-72) these row houses were built for John Marley. He owned them until c1890, after which they passed into the hands of Thomas McDonald who was the manager of the Colonial Bank in Victoria Street. The residents included John Marley and his wife in 33 Hawke Street (1872-c1890); Arthur Pretty who moved from here to Chetwynd Street in 1883 (Refer to 62-4 Chetwynd Street); and others such as James Barrowman (1875); William Stewart (1879-82); Alexander Massey and Edward Ettershank (1896-1897).Single fronted and transverse gabled roof (slated) row houses, formerly of polychrome brick and possessing iron picket fences and verandahs. Notable features include the verandah and fence.Architecturally, of little individual importance, although early for coloured brick construction, but contributing to one of the rare streetscapes in West Melbourne: of local importance. Historically, an early speculative row where the developer resided in one of the houses: of local interest.
