Statement of Significance

The place is representative of early development within Bayswater and makes a positive contribution to the streetscape. The site has historic value for its association with Jas Mills.

Physical Description

Timber frame and jarrah weatherboard cottage abutting the railway line. It has a corrugated iron hip roof and gable over projecting front. This gable features cross braced timbers over weatherboard facing and is surrounded by a separate bullnose iron roof which is stepped back over the entrance to line with the roof over the rest of the frontage. This roof is supported on full height turned timber posts linked by balustrading and a decorative wooden fret supported on carved wooden brackets. Windows are of the double hung wooden sash frame type.

History

The owner and builder of this house can not be positively identified. It is known that Jas Mills, gardener, had a house in this vicinity from 1897, whilst running a garden on what is now the park between Coode and Lawrence Streets. Whilst it is possible that this was his house, the description of the property in the old Rate Books is not sufficiently precise to draw a conclusion.
