Description

Patterson Cottage is an early to mid-19th century cottage built of squared tooled stone, topped with a Welsh slate roof and featuring yellow brick stacks. The building is single-storey with two bays. It has a central renewed studded door, which is flanked by renewed six-pane sash windows. All openings have Tudor-arched heads and hoodmoulds. To the right of the door, there is an inscribed plaque that reads: "THE HON. SIR JAMES BROWN PATTERSON K.C. M.C. PRIME MINISTER OF VICTORIA AUSTRALIA 1893-4 WAS BORN HERE 1833." The cottage has coped gables and stepped-and-corniced end stacks. There is a flat-roofed extension at the rear, which is not of special interest.
