Shepherd Street
No 6 is an Interwar house that has quite a collection of leadlight that has a radiant design with bevelled square and turquoise blue opaque glass. On the north side of the house there is a two panel double hung window and two small windows. There is a three panel angled bay window and another small window in the southern side and all have the radiant pattern. The front entrance to the verandah is particularly beautiful. The same radiant pattern is used but the glass is textured in the door panels and in the sidelights.
