Statement of Significance
The terrace houses, constructed in 1881, at 10-11 The Strand, Williamstown.
How is it Significant?The terrace houses at 10-11 The Strand, Williamstown are of local historic and aesthetic significance to the City of Hobsons Bay.
Why is it Significant?Historically, they are important as one of a number of surviving residences that illustrate the importance of The Strand as one of the premier residential addresses in early Williamstown. It is also of local interest as the materialization and investment of gold-won wealth by one of Williamstown's more affluent residents. (AHC criteria A4 and G1)
Aesthetically, they are original, relatively early and locally rare example of the two-storey terrace house form constructed of coloured brick. They are notable for the undivided (roof) duplex construction, which is uncommon on a metropolitan basis and is enhanced by its early landscape setting and its original front fencing. (AHC criteria B.2, E1 and F1)
