Around 1913 Miss Euphemia Paton bought a pair of 1850s cottages and rented them out until 1922 when she had her managing agent, W. B. Simpson and Son of North Melbourne, invite tenders for the ‘Purchase, Removal, brick and Wood Buildings, slate roofs’. Tenders closed three days later. Messrs. George & Murphy’s offer of £40 was accepted.
