Statement of Significance

Former Port Health Officer's residence, 231 Nelson Place, Williamstown, is a particularly early surviving substantial building in Williamstown and in Victoria. The former residence and surgery has important historical associations with the historic former port of Williamstown and is an important part of the streetscape and townscape of the city. Architecturally the building is a distinctive and important example of a classical Revival town residence. The verandah piers, iron work and the upper verandah are unusual.
