Pirie Street houses

Standing tall along Pirie St is what must once have been an impressive row of Edwardian houses – there’s only one out of place in this line of large two-storey buildings. Their natural relationship to the rises and hollows of the hillside has been lost over time to the cut and fill of road construction but they still display their original lines and heritage. Built in 1902 and 1903, they now range from the beautifully restored, to the tragically dilapidated and the well-maintained-but-functionally-modified. Numbers 65 and 67 were built in 1902 for Charles Whittingham Wycherley.
