A house identified as an integral component of the vernacular heritage of Galbally by such attributes as the alignment perpendicular to the road; the rectilinear lobby entry plan form; the construction in unrefined local materials displaying a pronounced battered silhouette with a failing surface finish revealing sections of ""daub"" or mud; and the high pitched roof originally showing a thatch finish according to the ""House and Building Return"" Form of the National Census (NA 1901; NA 1911).
