308-312 Neill Street, Soldiers Hill. Ballarat, Victoria
This small row of three red brick Queen Anne style terraces is unusual for Ballarat. While the marching down the hill style is similar to many in Soldiers Hill, the cute terraces of this row are unusually tiny and thin for Ballarat terraces, like miner or workers cottages. The size could possibly explained by their proximity to the railway station and the typically small blocks of the surrounding subdivision in Soldiers Hill.

301-311 Lydiard Street Nth. Soldiers Hill. Ballarat, Victoria
This row of six single storey rendered brick Victorian era terraces is the longest of several single storey rows along Lydiard Street. The row marches down the hill and terminates in an end terrace shop on the Seymour Street corner.
The terraces themselves are wide with a central door with double column support filligree verandahs. The roof features decorated eaves and a visible low pitched profile with two double chimneys each serving four main rooms with fireplaces. The facade appears to have been covered with a floating layer of floating sheet render, perhaps at later some stage which is falling off in many places to reveal red brick beneath.

Lascelles Terrace: 6-8 Errard Street Nth. Ballarat, Victoria
Lascelles Terrace: 6-8 Errard Street Nth. Ballarat, Victoria
Along with Ballarat Terrace, Lascelles Terrace would have to be one of the most impressive two storey Victorian terrace homes to be found in Ballarat. The large and highly detailed red brick short row pair of houses has mirrored features consisting of a prominent triangular pediment on each flanked by two smaller pedimented pilasters to form Palladian motifs. A large round shell motif and keystone and protruding cornice ledge give the terraces a landmark quality. Twin cast iron columns with large composite capitals separate finely executed cast iron filligree. However the rest of the terrace behind the elaborate facade is a subdued red brick composition with sparsely separated cream brick string courses.
