Alfred Road displays a mix of duplex and single unit dwellings, some constructed of stone (those built c. 1900 – c. 1910) and others of weatherboard (those built c. 1910 – c. 1920). A number of the houses were built as investment (rental) properties. House, 10 Alfred Road was built c. 1910. By 1921/22, the place was owned and occupied by Herbert Newman. It was described at this time as being a weatherboard house of four rooms. Thomas Hunter purchased the property in the late 1920s. By the mid-1950s, the property was owned and occupied by Alice and Henry Comben. The property was connected to the town sewerage in May 1955.
