Ellery's Arcade on Stirling terrace Toodyay, Western Australia comprises six shops which were built at various times. The first three shops were constructed over the period 1882 to 1891 by Jane Donegan, one of which she ran as a boarding house named 'Mount View'. After Jane's death in 1902, Charles G. Ellery purchased the shops and by 1907 had filled in the gaps with another three shops. The group at that time became known as Ellery's Buildings.
The row of six shops are of rendered brick construction with iron roof. The parapet has been divided by pilasters adorned with urn finials. The bullnose verandah canopy is supported on turned timber columns. The shops all have different style frontages. The butcher's shop has always been so, but the other shops have had a variety of businesses: saddlers, café, pharmacy, tailors, printers and grocers.[1][2]
