A fascinating example of polychromatic patterned brickwork incorporated in a quaint Victorian Villa. The essentially Victorian Gothic style is appropriate for its use as a rectory and its setting affords a pleasant aspect to the streetscape of lower Forbes Street at its junction with Clapton Place. (The Commission is in the process of developing and/or upgrading official statements for places listed prior to 1991. The above data was mainly provided by the nominator and has not yet been revised by the Commission.) |
