AHC Statement of Significance
Shillinglaw's Cottage, Main Road, Eltham, is a single storey dwelling, part being built probably c. 1859, for a Mr. Cochrane by William Stebbin. The rectangular main body of the house is constructed in Flemish Bond brickwork with darker headers giving singular distinction to the facade. The roof is slate and some walls are in local stone. Windows are twelve-pane sashes and relieving arches, sills and gable end walls characterise the facade.
Shillinglaw's Cottage, an early surviving house in the township of Eltham, is of note for its historical associations with the early settlement in the area, is of townscape importance and is unusual architecturally for the strong patterning of the brickwork. Part ofthe cottageis one of the earliest buildings in the area. The patterned brick part, which is probably later, is distinctive and uncommon and is a good example of the planning of basic, early Colonial style cottages.
Shillinglaw's Cottage, was moved about 100 metres when new Shire Offices were built.
Of State significance.
