NOTES
Additional Information:Photo code #2: 75BR-4/18,19 Original building largely intact except for modern energy efficient windows which block most of original window openings. Original 6/6 light windows no larger intact. These were altered between 1975-1986. Later additions to north and west were done in a manner sympathetic with the original. Decorative scallop and dart pattern concrete freize runs below cement parapet coping around whole building including the 1956 additions. A concrete beltcourse which acts as the first floor window sill also runs around the building. Excellent copper roofed bay window in original building on the south side.
