HOUSE & WELL AT 21 - 23 Daly Street

The house, constructed in the c.1880 or earlier with later additions c.1924 and c.1930, and the brick domed well at 21-23 Daly Street, Doncaster East.

How is it Significant?

The house and well at 21-23 Daly Street, Doncaster East are of local historic significance to Manningham City.

Why is it Significant?

The house has historic significance as a now rare surviving example of an early house associated with the rural development of this area prior to suburban development in the post-war period. It is of interest for apparently containing the very altered remnants of an earlier cottage within the present house, which faces away from the street toward Wetherby Road, thus indicating its construction prior to later subdivision. It is of particular significance for the remnant brick domed well, which is now extremely rare within the municipality. (RNE criteria A.4, B.2 and D.4)
