17, Fisher Street

17 Fisher Street is a building that originally served as the City Treasurer's office and is now occupied by shops and a café with offices above. It was constructed in the 1890s and features red brickwork, with some sections in Flemish bond on the ground floor facing Fisher Street. The façade on Fisher Street includes stone sill bands and a stone-bracketed metal gutter. The roof is made of Welsh slate, with coped gables and kneelers at the front, along with ridge and gable brick chimney stacks.

The Fisher Street façade is two storeys high and consists of three bays, with a right segmental through-archway that leads to the rear, which has three storeys and ten bays facing onto Treasury Court. The façade features sash and casement windows set in stone architraves. The entrance, located on the right return under the archway, has 20th-century glass doors and a radial fanlight within a quoined ashlar surround. There is also a 20th-century wooden oriel window beyond this entrance.

On the Treasury Court façade, there is an off-centre part-glazed door framed in red sandstone ashlar, with a four-light overlight that features a stained glass tulip design in each light. The left and right doorways have overlights set in brick reveals. The sash windows, including a paired set on the ground floor, have glazing bars and are situated in brick reveals with flat brick arches and stone sills. An opening on the extreme right of the first floor provided access to the treasurer's vault. The interior has not been inspected, but the building is included for its group value.
