Victoria" I can answer some questions there. Houses were built in 1910. The land was owned by the Wesleyan Church, the terraces built for rental properties. A Mr Charles Lavers, who was the local bank manager and a Church member, was the designer, finance arranger and supervisor of construction. In 1909 Mr Lavers was presented with a book "in recognition of his untiring effort and services rendered in the erecting of the houses" Just a side note - The Wesleyan Church were granted the entire block in the 1852 land sale at Hotham. They built a very beautiful Church on the corner of Queensberry and Capel street. It was demolished in 1936 by the then Methodist Church, the site was then used for factories.
