Job Bailey’s Cottage (fmr) is a good relatively intact example of a vernacular Pensioner Guard standard plan in the Victorian Georgian style, with some alterations and additions that demonstrate early and subsequent development on the east side of the Avon River, making a significant contribution to the historical townscape of York. Job Bailey’s Cottage (fmr) is historically significant for the association with Job Bailey, a Pensioner Guard of the Royal Engineers.
Single storey masonry residence. Simple hipped roof clad with corrugated iron and has separate front hipped skillion veranda supported by square timber posts. Original symmetrical front now a balance rhythm of openings due to additions.
Job Bailey was a Pensioner Guard. The dwelling was a standard design for Pensioner Guard housing by the Royal Engineers.
