Architecture

Inter-War Bungalow Porch House

No. 85 (previously was no. 185) Duke Street is a single-storey house constructed of rendered masonry with a hipped and gabled corrugated iron roof. Later additions are located to the rear. It is a simple expression of the Inter-War Bungalow style.

The place is consistent with the pattern of development in Plympton and plays an important role in the pattern of development of a working class suburb.
