Slide, Joh Ebeli, Preserving parts of the old Baker's house, corner of York Street and Main Road, Eltham, c.Sep. 1979

Historical information

The old weatherboard building, possibly dating from the 1860s, comprised a dwelling with a shop in the front room opening off a timber verandah deck which directly fronted the Main Road footpath. At the rear is a brick building of much later date which was for many years used for the bakery. The buildings were demolished for flat construction.

Joh Ebeli and Elwers Howard endeavoured to preserve some parts of the house.
