HOUSE - Physical Description 1
57 Whitby Street is a single storey asymmetrical rendered brick house with a hipped slate roof and a projecting gabled bay to the front. The walls are rendered with vermiculated quoins and, and the tripartite arched windows are separated by rusticated pilasters. Windows are timber-framed double-hung sashes. There is a moulded string course at impost level. The projecting gable end simulates a pediment, with bracketed bargeboards and eaves; a frieze runs under the eaves across the entire facade. The cast iron verandah has bullnose profile corrugated galvanised steel roof (non-original), and retains its original cast iron lacework frieze. Brick stables remain at the rear of the allotment. The brick front fence appears to date from the 1960s.
