East Melbourne, Hoddle Street 1151
A symmetrical single storey, double fronted weatherboard house. The front is executed in blockwork to imitate ashlar stonework. It has a particularly steeply pitched hipped slate roof and a timber verandah with convex iron and timber posts with cast iron frieze. The verandah may be a later addition. This is possibly a prefabricated building from Kent or Essex.
This is one of the only two weatherboard buildings extant in east Melbourne, and is representative of the large number of similar buildings that were built in East Melbourne in the 1850s and early 1860s.
East Melbourne, Hoddle Street 1151 - Burchett
Building is north of the "Boundary Hotel".
Constructed of weatherboards on the sides and simulated stone boarding in front.
1865 Names mentioned: Mick Collins for Mrs Egan. Record states "next Boundary Hotel". This
is disputed, as Mrs Egan already had a "wood" house next to hotel. Above would refer to a second one.
