Two storey building (former T. Brown Furniture Warehouse), 113-115 Main Street, STAWELL - Physical Description 1
The building at 113-117 Main Street, Stawell, contributes to the architectural and visual amenity of the predominantly Victorian and interwar streetscape.
The symmetrical, two storey, rendered and face brick, Victorian styled building is characterised by an early balustraded parapet with a central solid title panel (now blank) and flanking parapet piers, the whole supported by a broadly projecting stringcourse.
The first floor is also largely intact and has a three-bayed composition featuring early round-arched timber framed double hung windows (with the windows in the outer bays being grouped in pairs). These windows also feature early architraves punctuated by keystones. There is also a projecting stringcourse that is broken by the window arches, together with flanking square pilasters on the building corners with incised rectangular panels. Below the windows is a moulded stringcourse and the remnants of early pilasters that provides evidence of the original ground floor composition.
The projecting cantilevering canopy that extends across the upper part of the ground floor and to the neighbouring building at 115 Gold Reef Mall has been introduced, as has the ground floor aluminium framed shopfront and surrounds.
Beyond the main facade is an early gabled roof form clad in galvanised corrugated iron. The rear parapeted and corbelled brick wall is also early, as is the face brick chimney. The rear first floor timber framed windows and oculus ventilator in the gable end represent other early features.
The rear cream brick building represents a later addition.
