Statement of Significance
The following wording is from the Allom and Lovell Building Citation, 1998 for the property. Please note that this is a "Building Citation", not a "Statement of Significance". For further information refer to the Building Citation held by the City of Yarra.
History:
The Hodgkinson Map of 1858 shows this site as vacant land.' In 1868, the eastern half was owned by William Dale, and the western by John Stott. Rate Books for 1868 indicate that Stott was the owner of two 4 room brick houses under construction. By 1869, Dale had built two 4 room houses on his half of the land. Stott retained ownership of Nos. 10-12 until they were acquired by George Rushall in 1877. The ownership of Nos. 14-16 passed to Richard Aysh in 1874. Aysh, a mason, lived in No. 14 until 1892; the other three houses were occupied by tenants.
Description:
The terrace at 10-16 Derby Street, Collingwood, comprises four two storey attached bi-chromatic brick dwellings. The walls are of face brown brick, with cream brick dressings. At ground floor level, each house has a front door and single window, whilst at first floor level there are two windows. There is no verandah or balcony. Cream brick quoining at the building's corners, and between each dwelling combines with similar quoined window dressings to accentuate the unusual proportions, particularly of the ground floor facades, which are dominated by the large, off-centre openings. The roof is concealed behind an unpainted rendered parapet which has a simple cornice and is decorated with urns, only one of which remains. The roof is penetrated by bi-chromatic brick chimneys with unpainted rendered caps. Windows are timber-framed double hung sashes, and have bluestone sills.
Significance:The terrace at 10-16 Derby Street, Collingwood, is of local architectural significance. It is an unusually composed, intact example of an otherwise very austere bichromatic residential terrace, notable for its simple but uncommon and distinctive brickwork patterning.
