83, 85 AND 87, CHURCH STREET (See details for further address information)

Nos. 83, 85, and 87 Church Street, along with Nos. 2, 4, and 6 Dawson Square, form a block of six small townhouses that have been integrated into a showroom and offices. The building is dated 1837 over the corner and has been altered over time. It is constructed of coursed squared sandstone with a stone slate roof that is hipped over the corner. The structure is L-shaped, with No. 83 at the corner and the other houses previously being double-depth and single-fronted, now remodeled.

The building has three storeys and cellars, featuring one window each for Nos. 83, 85, and 87 on the ground floor facing Church Street, with a splayed corner and a window arrangement of one, one, two, and one for Dawson Square. A moulded gutter cornice runs around the building, and there is a small pediment over the corner with the date "1837" in raised lettering.

On the ground floor, No. 83 has a corner doorway with a plain surround and an altered door, along with large vertical rectangular windows on each side wall, both with plain surrounds and shutter lugs. Nos. 85 and 87 previously had similar openings with doorways to the left, but No. 85 now features a greatly enlarged 20th-century window that replaces both the doorway and the original window, reusing the jambs of the former doorway. The first-floor windows are vertical-rectangular, while the second-floor windows are square, all with raised sills, plain surrounds, and 20th-century glazing (15 panes for first-floor windows and 9 panes for second-floor windows).

Nos. 2 and 4 Dawson Square have doorways flanking a through-lobby doorway, while No. 6 has a doorway on the right-hand side. No. 4 features a 16-pane sashed window on the ground floor, two similar windows on the first floor, and two 9-pane sashes on the second floor. No. 6 has one window on each floor with top-hung casements that imitate this pattern, with all openings having surrounds similar to those on Church Street. The building has large rectangular corniced ridge chimneys. The rear and interiors were not inspected. This block forms a group with Nos. 89-91 Church Street.
