BABY HEALTH CENTRE - Physical Description 1
The Baby Health Centre is cream brick Moderne styled building with a rendered capped parapet and a terracotta tile hipped roofline. The front (west) elevation is dominated by an asymmetrically placed semi-circular bay window with metal framed windows and a painted projecting rendered lintel. The entrance, west of the bay, is defined by a small tower with a projecting rendered lintel, rendered capping, and a City of Coburg plaque.
While the building is not domestic in external appearance, its internal spaces are smaller than expected, with a central sun room, looking out over a rear garden, with smaller rooms provided for the infant welfare sister's consultation and as an office. The projecting wing forms part of the entry, and provides a place for strollers and prams.
