CITY of BOROONDARA Review of B-Graded Buildings in Kew, Camberwell and Hawthorn CITY OF BOROONDARA Review of B-graded buildings in Kew, Camberwell and Hawthorn Prepared for City of Boroondara January 2007 Revised June 2007 VOLUME 3 DATA SHEETS FOR CAMBERWELL AND HAWTHORN TABLE OF CONTENTS VOLUME 1 Main Report VOLUME 2 Individual Building Data Sheets – Kew VOLUME 3 Individual Building Data Sheets – Camberwell and Hawthorn VOLUME 4 Individual Building Data Sheets for buildings not recommended for the Heritage Overlay LOVELL CHEN 1 Introduction to the Data Sheets The following data sheets have been designed to incorporate relevant factual information relating to the history and physical fabric of each place, as well as the analysis and assessment supporting the recommendation for the application of the overlay. The following table contains explanatory notes on the various sections of the data sheets Section on data sheet Explanatory Note Name Original and later names have been included where known. In the event no name is known, the work House appears on the data sheet Reference No. For administrative use by Council. Building type Usually Residence, unless otherwise stated. Address Address as advised by Council and checked on site. Survey Date Date when site visited. Noted here if access was requested but not provided. Grading Grading following review (A or B). While the reviewed gradings are broadly in line with the general approach of the earlier studies, they do not always reflect the detail of the definitions in the earlier studies. In general, a B grading reflects a local level of significance, while an A grading reflects a higher level of significance (either state or municipal, refer to the statement of significance for clarification). It is noted that the City of Boroondara is currently working on a review of its local heritage policy framework which would seek to develop categories of ‘Significant’ and ‘Contributory’ buildings (these categories to be defined with reference to the grading systems used in the earlier municipal studies). Date Date of construction. Previous Grading Grading in earlier study. Photograph Photographs were taken by the consultants in 2005-6. Extent of overlay As recommended in this Review. Most commonly the recommendation is to title boundaries as this is accepted practice in the application of planning scheme overlays. In a small number of cases this recommendation varies. Intactness Where possible, an assessment of intactness has been made. This assessment (Good, Fair or Poor) is intended to refer only to visible external fabric and is not intended in most cases to 2 LOVELL CHEN consider rear or otherwise non-visible fabric or interiors. Heritage Status Indicates any listing on the Victorian Heritage Register, the Register of the National Estate or the National Trust Register. The recommendation for inclusion in the Boroondara Planning Scheme is noted here. History The history section incorporates in most cases material prepared by other consultants in the earlier municipal heritage studies. This material has been revised and in many cases expanded (though in others material considered to be of limited significance equally has been deleted). Footnotes from the original studies have been included (though these have not been verified). The authors of the earlier studies have been acknowledged by the note at the end of the history section. Description & Integrity This section is based on the site inspection, in most cases combined with other documentation such as drawings and planning and building file information. The objective in this section is to describe the fabric and identify alterations and additions. Refer to Section 2.4 in Volume 1. Historical Context This brief note is intended to help to place the building in its historical context. In some cases it includes information on the historical development of the surrounding area; in others it is simply a note about the building stock existing in the area. Comparative Analysis This section helps to place the building in its architectural and typological contexts, making reference to stylistic sources in some cases, and to other comparable buildings. Refer to section 2.6 in Volume 1 for further discussion. Assessment Against Criteria For a discussion of the criteria and their application in this Review, refer to section 2.7 in Volume 1 of the report. Statement of Significance The statement of significance summarises the results of the assessment against criteria. It is a concise and brief statement noting the level of significance (local, municipal or state/national) and the nature of the significance. It does not repeat historical or descriptive material or list all significant fabric. Note that in all cases, buildings have been noted as being of historical significance even where not assessed against the relevant criteria (A or G). This is in recognition of the fact that all the buildings contribute in a general sense and at a local level to the historical framework of the area. Refer to discussion at section 2.7 of Volume 1. Grading Review Comments on the revised grading. LOVELL CHEN 3 Recommendations Recommendations for the inclusion in the overlay. In some cases, additional recommendations are made. Identified By Reference to the earlier municipal study in which the building was identified. References General and specific references.

BPS Heritage Overlay History Harrison Rotherham acted as builder and C M Rotherham as owner to construct this nine-room, two- storied concrete dwelling in 1911.1 To date, no architect has been associated with the project. Curiously, an image of this house or an identical house is reproduced in the Camberwell Conservation Study 1991 (vol. 2, p. 55), where it is described as being the home of SH Wilson, Albion Road, Canterbury. No date is given but the source of the image is identified as the Real Property Annual.2 Harrison Rotherham and his family lived there until c.1925. Rotherham resided in Leopold Crescent, Surrey Hills, at the turn of the century and later at 435 Kent Street, Surrey Hills.3 His business lay with Rotherham Wood & Co., manufacturers agents, Elizabeth Street, Melbourne.4 Within a generation he had reputedly shifted his interests to the Dominion Brace and Garter Co. Pty Ltd, Hawthorn. Rotherham, Wood & Co. represented among others: Josiah Parkers, makers of locks; Geo Salter & Co., spring balance (scales) and iron manufacturers; Summerscales Mangles; Newman door springs; the Wyoming Shovel Co.; and Adshead and Smellie, art-metal makers. They were wholesale only but displayed all of the makers’ samples and could be contacted by telegraph from any government or Reuter office. Rotherham attended the Philadelphia Commercial Congress, as Melbourne’s delegate, in 1899.5 Thule Croft had minor (and unspecified) additions in 1935 and 1947, and was converted into flats and had a carport constructed in 1960.6 More recently it was returned to use as a single dwelling, and alterations were undertaken to the front fence and the rear of the house (at ground and first floor levels) in 1999-2002.7 (G Butler, Camberwell Conservation Study 1991, additional research by Lovell Chen, 2005) Boroondara Heritage Review B Graded Buildings Lovell Chen 2005 Building Citation Description & Integrity Thule Croft, at 24 Albion Street, Surrey Hills, is a two-storey attic-roofed house evidently with stone footings,8 and concrete masonry ground floor walls and chimneys, a return verandah facing north and east, and a shingle covered upper storey, formed from several attic wings. The shingles at the upper level appear possibly to have been replaced more recently in an atypical pattern of 30 cm squares. The attic wings and dormers are original other than for the small dormer in the main roof form, which has been added.

  • 2 Hilary Grove, Glen Iris Place Type: Residential Buildings (Private), House Significance Level: Local
    ‘St Hilary’, formerly ‘Charleville’ 2 Hilary Grove, Glen Iris Place type: Residential Buildings (private), House Significance level: Local Recommended protection: Planning Scheme Architectural style: Victorian period (1851-1901) Georgian & Italianate Locality history Glen Iris is a suburb that lies at the northern end of the former City of Malvern. It occupies gently undulating country along the Gardiners Creek valley, and is bounded by Tooronga Road, Wattletree Road and the Monash Freeway. The hamlet of Gardiner now lies within Glen Iris, although this was formerly recognised as a locality of its own. Glen Iris has long straddled two municipalities, with a portion in the former City of Malvern and a portion in the former City of Camberwell (now the City of Boroondara). It was originally bisected by the Gardiners Creek but in the 1960s the South Eastern freeway created a wider barrier between the two sections. York Street, Glen Iris, for example, is now in two disconnected sections. The first settlement in this area took advantage of the Gardiners Creek, which provided a water source for stock, and for orchards and market gardens. The line of the creek, and the roads that followed it, including Malvern Road, became an eastwards arterial of early settlement. The first land sales in the mid-1850s attracted those seeking an elevated suburban retreat away from the noise and odours of the city, and the early estates operated as small farms. Among the notable early estates were ‘Charleville’ (1857), ‘Viewbank’ (c.1858-59) and ‘Brymawr’ (1859). The area was highly desirable on account of the picturesque countryside and commanding views.

    PLANNING PANELS VICTORIA Melbourne Planning Scheme Amendment C365 Heritage Overlay HO1205 Subject Site: “Chart House”, No. 372 - 378 Little Bourke Street Melbourne Expert Heritage Evidence Prepared for Berjaya Developments Pty Ltd By Robyn Riddett Director Anthemion Consultancies POB18183 Collins Street East Melbourne 8003 Tel. +61 3 9495 6389 Email: [email protected] December 2019 “Chart House” No. 372 - 378 Little Bourke Street, Melbourne 1.0 Introduction 1. I have been instructed by Best Hooper, on behalf of Berjaya Developments Pty Ltd, to prepare expert heritage evidence which addresses the heritage aspects of the proposal to grade the site as “Contibutory”, as a consequence of the Guildford and Hardware Laneways Heritage Study prepared by Lovell Chen in May 2017, as a consequence of Melbourne Planning Scheme Amendment C365. 2. The previous Property Schedule included in the Guildford & Hardware Laneways Precinct Citation graded the building as Contributory. In effect it graded the east wall abutting Niagara Lane but not the façade addressing Little Bourke Street which Lovell Chen had indicated was not of any significance. Subsequently the Amendment C271 Panel recommended that “Chart House” be included within HO1205 with a Non-contributory grading. When HO1205 came into effect on 12 August 2019, No. 372 – 378 Little Bourke Street was included within HO1205 but with a Contributory, rather than with a Non- contributory grading and on an interim basis as a consequence of Amendment C355melb. This change in grading appears to have been influenced by correspondence from Melbourne Heritage Action which put forward new information about “Chart House”. It is now proposed, as a consequence of Amendment C365melb, to include No.

  • Architecture Creating Connections Recognised in 2020 Victorian Architecture Awards Shortlist
    Architecture creating connections recognised in 2020 Victorian Architecture Awards shortlist The best of Victoria’s architecture, showcasing the immense value architects add when embedded end to end in a project, has been revealed with the release today of the 2020 Victorian Architecture Awards shortlist. The awards program, run by the Victorian Chapter of the Australian Institute of Architects, features a shortlist recognising architecture in the public realm, residential sector, regional areas, embedded sustainability and much more. Spread across 14 categories, 108 entries have made the shortlist which encompasses 76 individual projects. Victorian Chapter President Amy Muir says the shortlisted projects define the significant role that quality built outcomes have in creating sustainable, resilient buildings that can endure for generations. The selected projects go beyond the parameters of the brief to deliver compelling results. ‘This year’s shortlisted projects are exemplars of the outcomes that can be achieved when architects are engaged in the entire process, resulting in a strong collaboration between client, consultants and contracted builders,’ said Ms Muir. ‘These projects are leading examples of how architects elevate quality through carefully considered outcomes in the building process. The selected projects create a lasting legacy that enable architecture to be accessed more broadly throughout the community. ‘During these strange times we are thrilled to celebrate architecture that continues to challenge the status quo.

  • Hawthorn Heritage Study
    HAWTHORN HERITAGE STUDY APRIL 1993 The Hawthorn Heritage Study was one of the three Special Strategy Plan Projects started during 1991. The Heritage Study was prepared by a team led by Meredith Gould, Conservation Architect, with substantial input from the Townscape and Heritage Topic Group as part of the Hawthorn Strategy Plan process. Some sections of the study were completed in draft form as early as late 1991; other sections have only reached completion now. This Study is the first ever comprehensive assessment of Hawthorn's urban and landscape heritage. Every bUilding in Hawthorn has been assessed for its heritage value. Significant trees, parks, landscapes and roadways have also been evaluated and recorded. The heritage areas proposed in the Study were endorsed by Hawthorn Council for the purpose of public consultation on 10 December 1991. Comments were sought by means of a map and explanatory material in a Strategy Plan booklet letterboxed throughout Hawthorn in March 1991. On 25 August 1992, Council resolved that a proposed Planning Scheme Amendment be drafted to include: Heritage protection for areas Protection of individual buildings of stand alone and contributory signiticance outside heritage areas. Voluntary registration of other individual places outside heritage areas, for the purpose of heritage protection. A degree of heritage control substantially reduced compared to normal Urban Conservation Areas. Council on 20 April 1993 resolved to publish the completed study; to notify property owners of buildings recommended for inclusion on the Historic Buildings Register, the National Estate Register and the Significant Tree Register; and to refer for further officer investigation the recommendations on signiticant street trees, kerbs/gutterslfootpaths/roadways, laneways, drains and creeks, Yarra River/Gardiners Creek, parks/reserves, and the establishment of an internal monitoring system.
