East Melbourne, Clarendon Street 208, 210, 212, Clarendon Terrace

Description: 

A terrace of three two storey houses designed to look like one house. The central house has an unusual portico of giant order Corinthian columns. An interesting comparison is Clarendon House, Nile, near Launceston, Tasmania, built in 1838 for James Cox, which also has a portico of giant order columns, although Ionic in that case.

History: 

Clarendon Terrace was built in 1857 by Robert Huckson, to the design of Osgood Pritchard for Charles Lister, wine and spirit merchant and brewer. Additions were made in 1874 by James Billings for Henry Marks.
