History

Twelve houses Holland Street (Nos. 90-112) were all built by 1902.
Lot 1149 was vacant in 1900. In the 1901/02 rate period a cottage, owned by the Government, had been built and was occupied by Thomas Grant, a labourer.
Numbers were allocated in 1905. The house was originally number 175, and became number 102 when the whole street was renumbered in 1937.
The 1914 Sewerage Plan (No 2118) shows a small weatherboard house with a verandah at front and rear, and a roof in two parts.
By 1909/10 James Dew was the owner. In 1912 Edward Cassidy was the owner and rented the property. From c1940 the owner /occupier was Joseph Gilbert Byrne, until at least 1949 (when post office directory records cease).
Aerial photos show that between 2000 and 2004 the lot was subdivided and a new house built at the rear.
