                    HistoryThe house at 29 Barkly Street appears to have been constructed c. 1867. Sands & McDougall directories indicate that Owen O' Callaghan, a detective, occupied a house on this site from c.1867 until c.1900.
                    Description/Notable FeaturesThe house at 29 Barkly Street is a Victorian double-storey brick residence with a hipped tiled roof concealed behind a parapet. The house adopts a terrace form, and has a double-storey verandah with cast iron lacework friezes, terminated at each end by rendered wing walls. The cast iron balustrading does not appear to be original . Windows are timber-framed double-hung sashes. Alterations include the painting of the brickwork and the recladding of the roof in terracotta tiles. The iron palisade fence appears to be original.
                    Statement of SignificanceThis house is of local aesthetic interest. The house, possibly dating from the 1860's, is a typical and relatively intact example of a nineteenth century Italianate style terrace which is an important element in the streetscape.
