Clontarf Cottage, built in 1844 by Robert Blake, exemplifies early colonial architecture with its low-set design, symmetrical chimneys, and contrasting textures of stone, wood, and iron. The building's appeal lies in its simplicity, featuring a low stone-flagged verandah and austere chimney mouldings. Purchased by Leichhardt Council in 1974, it was restored for community use in 1988 following public protests. Today, Clontarf Cottage serves as a community venue, offering a unique setting for various events and gatherings.
