Buildings of particular architectural interest include early bluestone cottages from the 1860s located at 66-68 and 78 Weston Street; their intactness is fair. There are several rows of Victorian terraces, including two reasonably intact runs between 107 and 125 Weston Street. A pair of semi-detached Edwardian brick cottages is located at 82-84 Weston Street. These cottages have unusual column detailing to the front porches and retain original screen doors.
