Appraisal
A typically solid and well-proportioned Roman Catholic parochial house, which retains its early form and character. This building is very characteristic of its type and date and retains much of its early fabric including timber sliding sashes and bracketed eaves. The chamfered corners to the porch and the horizontally divided sashes to the ground floor openings are distinctive features. The form of this parochial house suggests that it predates the rebuilding of the church to the south in 1932. This building forms an attractive pair with this associated church to the south (15403006) and is a modest addition to the built heritage of the Mount Temple area.
