This one-storey house is located at 68 James Street. (1)

The Broughton House is a mid-block building located at 67 James Street. It was built pre-1900 in the Neoclassical Duplex style. This structure was the home of the Post Master (H.S. Broughton) many years ago.
The two-storey, rectangular building has a simple form with a shallow-pitched, gable roof and a centre hall plan. It has a four-bay organization. This is similar to typical, duplex arrangements with an even number of bays. The paired front doors (with transom above) are original. They are half glazed with decorative panelling below. Originally, the building had a wide, front verandah with a shed roof. The broad entrance has been remodelled and is now non-functional. First-floor windows were originally in the same pattern as those on the second floor. Metal siding and shutters conceal alterations to the original building. The original construction was probably wood frame with wood cove siding. There is a parged, stone foundation and a cellar. Originally, chimneys were placed symmetrically at each end of the gable roof. According to the 2000 inventory, other than the building’s basic form, few original features remain. (1, 3)

The mid-block building located at 147 and 149 James St. was built pre-1900 in the Ontario Vernacular style. The 1½-storey duplex has a medium-pitched, gable roof, a simple form, and a central entrance. An existing projecting, (enclosed) entrance porch is not original. The entrance doors may have had an awning roof projection at one time. There is a lack of decoration. The aluminum (replacement) windows may have been enlarged. Wood frame construction has vinyl siding and there is a parged, block foundation. According to the 2000 inventory, this modest building displays few historical features beyond the basic form. (1, 3)

The Old Presbyterian Manse is located at 129 James St. (on the northeast corner of James and Essa Streets). It was built around 1875 in the Neoclassical style. It was being used as a manse at the turn of the century and has since been converted into duplex units.
The two-storey, rectangular building has a symmetrical façade, a centre hall plan and a medium-pitched, gable roof. It has large window openings, high floor to ceiling heights, and large, 6/6, double-hung windows. The original entrance probably had sidelights and a transom. There appears to have been a broad verandah at the front entrance and identical chimneys at both ends of the gable roof at one time. The building has sculptured, curvilinear, soffit brackets, solid brick construction (Flemish bond), and an exposed, stone foundation. According to the 2000 inventory, the existing entrance and many windows and doors do not reflect the original design intent. It also notes that the existing duplex unit arrangement suggests major interior modifications. (1, 3)
