Description
Wellington Court is a detached house that was originally part of the Red Barracks, built in 1795 and rebuilt after a fire in 1801. The building features Flemish-bond brickwork, some rendering, and a slate roof.
The exterior is two stories high with a three-window range facing Barrack Road, positioned at right angles to the main range of Nos. 3-45. The street-facing side is rendered above a rebuilt brick boundary wall that stands approximately 2.6 meters tall, with a small sash window on each level. The entrance front, which faces the former parade ground, showcases Flemish-bond brickwork and has a hipped roof. All windows are 12-pane sashes set in brick voussoirs with stone sills. The central entrance consists of a six-panel door topped by a three-pane transom light. The outer gable end features a sash window on each level, while the inner gable is simply rendered.
The interior has not been inspected, but it was reported in February 2017 that the building is now two separate dwellings. Historically, this structure was part of the former Cavalry barracks, which was rebuilt as an Infantry barracks after the fire. The Red Barracks was part of a series of one-troop cavalry stations along the south coast, planned by General Colonel DeLancey. Wellington Court is part of a group of buildings that are externally complete.
