Statement of Significance

The house at 10 Raglan Street contributes to the single storey, predominantly Victorian styled residential character of the immediate area. The Victorian style of the house suggests that it was constructed in the late 19th or early 20th century.

Although partially altered, the house at 10 Raglan Street is historically and architecturally significant at a LOCAL level. It is associated with residential developments in St. Arnaud in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and it demonstrates some original design qualities of a Victorian style. These qualities include the symmetrical composition, single storey height, simple dominant hipped roof form and the skillion verandah that projects towards the street frontage. Other intact qualities include the green painted galvanised corrugated iron roof cladding, horizontal weatherboard wall cladding, unpainted brick chimney with a corbelled top, modest eaves with timber brackets, and timber framed double hung windows symmetrically arranged about a four panelled door with toplight.
