Little is currently known about the history of this cottage located on part of Town Section 286, however based on its style it is estimated to have been constructed sometime in the 1880s or 1890s.
The front of the cottage is clad in rusticated weatherboard, and the sides and rear in plain roughsawn weatherboard - typical for homes of this period. It retains some original sash windows, and the front french doors are possibly also original.
This cottage is part of a cluster of late nineteenth century cottages centred around nearby Morley Street.
