General notes:

Grading as at 1999: Upgraded from E to DPeriod: Early Victorian, constructed c 1866These houses are a pair of single-storey Victorian cottages, constructed in brick with transverse gabled slate roofs and a central red brick chimney. The roofs are partially concealed by a rendered parapet, from which part of the cornice of No. 65 has been removed. They are of local historical and aesthetic interest, representing the type of modest speculative housing which proliferated in North and West Melbourne in the nineteenth century. Aesthetically, the houses are reasonably intact and form an interesting element in the streetscape.
