Statement of Significance
The double fronted timber cottage at 8 Glenelg Street was erected pre 1853 (the building is shown on town maps dating from 1853) by William Douglas, who purchased the land at the first public land auctions held in 1840. The cottage is one of the oldest surviving structures in Portland and therefore, Victoria. With its wide sawn weatherboard cladding, timber shingle roof and continuous roof and verandah roof line, it epitomizes the early timber structures of the town. The original verandah has been enclosed and now forms a front annex.
