The CGI cottage is significant historically, socially and aesthetically as a representative of its type, of which it is one of the better examples. It is part of a group at the south end of the township and has historic significance for its association with the lives of miners from the Gwalla Mine. (See also Site Nos. 118-125.)
Small CGI cottage similar to others in the group of Gwalla CGI miner's cottages (see Site Nos. 118 -125). Front verandah is a continuation of the main roof angle, still with timber columns, however, partially enclosed with fibro and louvres. Rear lean-to is under a shallower pitched roof. Some original windows replaced with aluminium windows.
See other Gwalla sites for further information in the Gwalla settlement (eg Gwalla Church Site No.131).
