ARCHITECTURE
Late Federation Bungalow with Georgian Influences
No 47 May Street is a single-storey house constructed brickwork with a hipped corrugated iron roof. It is a good expression of the Federation Bungalow style. The place is symmetrically planned with a central door and hopper light flanked by sidelights and double hung sash windows. The facade features a full-width skillion roof verandah supported on timber posts.
