Description
No. 18 Fairfield Square is a house built in the late 18th century, with significant alterations made in the 19th century. It is constructed of header bond brick and has a slate roof. The house features a double-depth plan with two bays and two storeys, along with a wing at the rear. In the 19th century, the eaves were raised, and the door and window openings were modified. The entrance has a four-panel door on the left, which includes an overlight and a stone lintel. The windows are sash style, with stone sills and segmental brick-arched heads. There is a gable chimney stack. This building is included for its group value and as an important part of the Moravian Settlement.
