East Melbourne, Gipps Street 080, Clinton Hall
This is an elaborately detailed mock medieval block of flats designed to look like one house, with tuckpointed brick quoins and rough render panels. There is a corbelled brick string course and label mouldings over windows. There is an oriel window to the west facade and fine leadlights to all windows.
These flats are a conversion of an old single storey house. MMBW plans show a small, perhaps four roomed house set well to rear of block, yet there is a small sketch plan in the Building Application file for Clinton Hall which shows a much larger house.
