Statement of Significance
Part of the Bowen Street Precinct
Bowen Street Urban Conservation Area has significance as a cohesive and characteristic nineteenth century working-class street retaining a series of small weatherboard cottages with small frontage set-backs. The form and stylistic consistency of the cottages create a remarkably cohesive architectural character to the area. Historically the physical relationship between the workers' housing and the mansions is of interest.
The use of timber picket fences, white not original, reflects the earlier fencing types likely to have been used in this area and contributes to the valued character of the area.
