Description

Pollock's Toy Museum is a corner house that dates back to around 1767 and has been altered over time. The building is constructed of brown brick, with the upper stories featuring later multi-coloured stock brick refacing. It has a corrugated asbestos sheet mansard roof with a dormer and stands three stories high, with an attic and cellars.

The facade includes two windows and a two-window return, one of which is blind, facing Whitfield Street. The house door has an altered wooden doorcase with fluted pilasters and a broken pediment above an arch-headed fanlight. On the corner, there is a wooden double shopfront supported by pilasters that carry an entablature with a projecting cornice. The shop windows have been altered, and there is a half-glazed shop doorway with a fanlight. The building features gauged red brick segmental arches above recessed 20th-century windows and has a parapet. The return side has sash windows and a gable with a chimney stack.

Inside, the museum retains some original features.
