Moravia - Physical Description 1
Moravia is a substantially intact shop and residence typical of the nineteenth century. The cast-iron barley twist colonettes and arches of the shopfront have survived, flanked by rendered pilasters and two doorways: one leading to the upstairs residence, the other to the shop. The cast-iron verandah and balustrading at first floor level is intact. The parapet was probably balustraded and the central raised pediment appears to have lost its crowning mouldings.
A bluestone pitched lane leads down the west side of the building, providing access for what appears to have been a workshop at the rear of this building dating from this century.
