Statement of Significance
What is significant?
The house at 6 Bosisto Street, Richmond, constructed in 1858, probably by the original owner, John Pollock, a stonemason is significant. It is a small, single-storey cottage constructed of coursed quarry-faced bluestone construction with pick-faced bluestone quoining and dressings to window and door openings. The central panelled entrance door is flanked by single-paned double-hung sash windows. The hipped corrugated iron roof is concealed behind a painted moulded cornice and parapet.
