Windows to first floor of Nos. 5-13, 19-27 in long strips in bright green timber surrounds under deep eaves. Timber doors with glazed panel, some renewed in hardwood, those to 5-27 set in projecting porches with vertical green timber cladding. Gardens entered up steps between retaining brick walls, which extends to a decorative curved planter in front of no. 5. Interiors not inspected. Central pergola at the corner of Dibley Street and Brock Street is an integral part of the composition. The group forms a square, the distinctive idiom of the Gordon Road neighbourhood.
