26 Mercer Street, Queenscliff

No. 26 Mercer Street is of historical and architectural significance to the Borough of Queenscliffe. It is of historical significance for its long association with Dr David J Williams, Health Officer at the Heads from 1867 and the first Mayor of Queenscliffe in 1863. The building is also significant as an example of a reasonably externally intact large weatherboard house associated with comparatively early development in Queenscliff during the 1860s, and as one of a number of similarly large houses of the era sited in this elevated part of Queenscliff.
