The three shops were erected pre 1848. The two storey brick structure originally served as shops and residences although during the 1850's each of the buildings was used as a boarding house. The rear additions also date from a later period.
They are among the few remaining buildings in the Central Business District dating from the 1840's.
They are the sole survivors of the numerous small boarding houses, residences and shops that so dominated this section of Bourke Street in the 1850's. They are typical in scale, materials and form of the buildings of this period.
