Summary

Brougham Place, north side, January 20th 1958, right side of building is 70 1/4 yards west of O'Connell Street and frontage is approximately 22 3/4 yards. Belmont was originally built as the North Adelaide Masonic and Public Hall Association. This building was opened in 1858. JB Neales who reached South Australia in 1838 was the first resident. The architect was Edmund Wright. In the 1860s it was the home of Dr John Woodforde who arrived with Colonel Light in 1836. The house was later bought in 1913 by Dr Harry Swift who lived here for 30 years. This photograph taken in 1958 shows the house, number 71 - 74 Brougham Place, with its classical facade with a sign saying "The Belmont". The style is described as "Roman Doric surmounted by a handcome cornice which rises over a pediment in the centre....the building is a handsome addition to North Adelaide"
