Alloarmo

1. Architecturally significant as a rare late nineteenth century picturesque gothic revival dwelling, unusual for the richness of its detailing, the late use of this style, and the adaptations to the small site setback.

2. Architecturally significant for the survival of the 1850s wing, amongst the oldest buildings in Hawthorn.

3. "Alloarmo", built in 1856-57 for William Stokes, public notary, and extended c1896 for Alexander B. Clerk, has historical significance for the early date of construction of the original two-storeyed cottage with its small rooms. This is one of only two known remaining examples of a type of suburban housing in Hawthorn in the 1850s.
