The colour scheme is, Ivory for the 'flat surfaces', with Mission Brown for the window trims, door surround, and substantive structure. The Dated section is central to the whole building! Each of the windows (x 4), and entrance door (and also the section that houses the Date) has a curved / arched section at the top, with a colour highlighted 'keystone'.
As the substantive stone work is nicely painted, it is not possible to determine the type, but as it is of quite similar to the neighbouring building I would assume that it is of Hawkesbury sandstone. Which lends itself to the chiseled moulding work around the Date, and the gouged lines and scrolls of the 'jambs' beside the Date.
Situated at 280 High Street, Maitland, 2320,
There is a 'typical' doctors' bronze plate at the entrance to the building.
