DESCRIPTION
100-100A Pakington Street is a two storey building built to the site boundary with an angled corner. The walls are rendered with decorative ashlar coursing. Th first floor windows and two windows on the ground floor have window enframements and sills made of sandstone. This decorative feature is enhanced by the attractive arrangement of the glazing bars. This form of glazing was rarely used in Geelong prior to the 1860s. Three quarters of the ground floor facade has been altered from the original. Along the south elevation there is a single storey extension. The hipped roof has relatively new corrugated iron cladding.
