| Last updated on - July 1, 1999 The Residence at 34 Waterloo Crescent is a single storey timber cottage dating from the early 1850s with a challenging and complex history. It has recently been the subject of intense investigation by its new owners who have carried out a number of changes aimed at restoring the building to its original form. Analysis of the timber shows that it is constructed essentially of indigenous timber (with the exception of the external cladding which was Baltic pine) which raises a number of issues about the availability of timbers during the 1850s. The construction and form of the cottage also challenges the interpreter as it appears the timbers were apparently designed for a structure 1.8 metres less in length than the present building. The timbers for the smaller structure are pre-cut and display mortice holes and other features which are irrelevant to their location as actually built. The in situ evidence indicates that the intended structure was a sort of terrace consisting of three units, each of two rooms, one behind the other. However, the building which was erected boundary to boundary across the site was erected as a single residence with central passage and rooms either side in a symmetrical disposition. The front of the house looked out south over the deep rear garden and would once have had a view of the sea. Investigation of the house has shown a number of changes took place relatively early in the building's life. These included replacement of the rear skillion with a hipped roof (pre-1860) and the erection of a verandah along the south facade and the replacement of the original windows with bay windows (post-1873). These and other later additions including internal fittings have recently been reversed by the present owners although there remains some doubt about the accuracy of some parts of the reinstatement. In summary the structure has architectural and historic significance as - an instructive example of a modest 1850s timber dwelling and the construction practices which were in use at the time; - an example of a house erected almost entirely from indigenous timbers which raises a number of questions about the timber industry of the 1850s; - an example of a previously unknown type of pre-fabricated timber terrace type; - a creatively sited dwelling which was erected to take advantage of views at the rear of the block - for its intact and elaborate garden setting |
