Gladstone Street Precinct - Physical Description 1
Gladstone Street is a narrow street lined by detached and semi-detached brick and timber houses. Most are single fronted. The forms of the houses are diverse, ranging from double-fronted Italianate houses with polychrome brickwork, asymmetrical facade, half verandah and ornate lacework, to simple brick or timber attached pairs.
The closeness of the houses to the street and the predominance of low fencing (generally traditional in form) mean that the buildings create the dominant character of the street. The street itself retains the traditional construction materials of asphalt and bluestone, with bluestone cobbled laneways also remaining at the rear of the dwellings. The tree plantings are recent, with alternating Melaleucas and Callistemons. These do not make a major contribution to the visual attributes of the street.Gladstone Street Precinct - Local Historical Themes
