Statement of significance:


	EF House, formerly Hinchcliff Wool Stores, 5-7 Young Street, is one of only two known examples of its building type left in Sydney. (The other is the building now called Gallipoli House, in Loftus Street, whose appearance has been much compromised.) It has historic significance, evoking a bustling period in Sydney's history, when Circular Quay was the centre of the international shipping trade, and wool was Australia's chief export. It demonstrates the form and quality of the woolstore type that preceded the entrepreneurial display of wool in larger south lit buildings. The building is a handsome element in the streetscape and an intrinsically interesting architectural composition. The remaining timber internal structure, cathead beam structures, and a large hoist pulley characterising the manual lifting of wool to the upper floors, provide the building additional scientific significance.

Description


Designer/Maker:	Unknown
Builder/Maker:	Unknown
Construction years:	1865-1882
Physical description:	Painted Stucco & Sandstone, Victorian Georgian vernacular style wool stores with masonry walls, king post timber roof trusses, internal timber post-and-beam structure and timber floors. In 2021 the first of several eateries opened in refurbished and adaptively-reused Hinchcliff House: stage 1 of redevelopment. Entry-level 'Grana' eatery and attached bakery opened in April 2021 and the rest, over four floors, will follow in coming weeks. A custom benchtop snakes through 'Grana'. 'Apollonia', a basement bar carved out of the (sandstone) bedrock, will open next, followed by eatery 'Lana' and a sprawling function space on the top floor (Bolles, 2021, 2). Hinchcliff House has been deliciously restored and transformed into a multi-level Italian dining experience by the high-energy House Made Hospitality group. Steps lead down to 'Apollonia', a moody basement bar seemingly dug out of sandstone. Another door slides open to 'Grana', an all-day Italian diner on the ground floor; and a third reveals a serious in-house bakery with its own flour mill. Any of those portals will give access to the first floor; where fine diner 'Lana' sprawls from wall to wall in a lush arrangement of high and low seating, backlit bar, timber beams, banquettes and kitchen (Durack, 2021, 3).
Modifications and dates:	Southern Section c1860, initially single storey, but built in two stages. Southern section built first, c1865 (stone and iron).

History

Historical notes:

The "Eora people" was the name given to the coastal Aborigines around Sydney. Central Sydney is therefore often referred to as "Eora Country". Within the City of Sydney local government area, the traditional owners are the Cadigal and Wangal bands of the Eora. There is no written record of the name of the language spoken and currently there are debates as whether the coastal peoples spoke a separate language "Eora" or whether this was actually a dialect of the Dharug language. Remnant bushland in places like Blackwattle Bay retain elements of traditional plant, bird and animal life, including fish and rock oysters.

With the invasion of the Sydney region, the Cadigal and Wangal people were decimated but there are descendants still living in Sydney today. All cities include many immigrants in their population. Aboriginal people from across the state have been attracted to suburbs such as Pyrmont, Balmain, Rozelle, Glebe and Redfern since the 1930s. Changes in government legislation in the 1960s provided freedom of movement enabling more Aboriginal people to choose to live in Sydney (sourced from Anita Heiss, "Aboriginal People and Place", Barani: Indigenous History of Sydney City http://www.cityofsydney.nsw.gov.au/barani ).

Subject site:
The site comprises allotment 12 of Section 103, originally granted to Thomas Woolley by Crown Grant 13th June 1853 and allotment 13 of the same section, originally granted to Thomas Holt Junior by two deeds of grant dated 13 June 1853 by Governor-General Sir Charles Augustus Fitzroy. Holt had acquired the southern (lot 12) by 1863. Holt was born in Yorkshire in 1811, eldest son of Thomas and Elizabeth Hold. Holt Senior was one of the oldest and most-respected wool merchants and manufacturers in Leeds, UK. He went to work in his father's business and was admitted as partner. He worked in London as a wool-buyer and later represented the Leeds House in the wool markets of the Continent, commencing in Spain (Urbis, 2017, 30-31).

Holt's partnership dissolved when his father retired in 1842, by which time Australian wool was making its mark on the world market and the potential of the colony for pastoral and agricultural industries was increasingly recognised. Holt and his wife sailed for Australia aboard the Helvellyn in 1842. Upon arrival, he invested modest capital in propertty in Raymond Terrace, Liverpool, Wollongong and Sydney, including an acre of land in Pitt Stret. He was made a magistrate and as one of Sydney's most prominent financiers was a foundation director and member of several gold-mining, insurance (including the Australian Mutual Provident (AMP) Society) and railway companies (ibid, 2015, 31).

Holt commenced business as a wool merchant with a two storeyed wool and general store two houses below the Haymarket known as 136 George Street South. He had a small dwelling house which adjoined the store. His first export of 31 bales was consigned to England aboard the Hindoo in 8/1844. Invitation to do business was typically inserted in daily newspapers. Holt retired from the wool business in 1854 following a fire which destroyed his George Street store. Holt was granted the northern lot (13) of the subject site in 1853 and had acquired the southern lot (12) by 1863. His allotment is recorded in the 1858 City of Sydney Assessment book as being occupied by Ed Joy and Co., Store and Offices. It was noted as single storey, constructed of iron and wood with two rooms. Sands DIrectory the same year listed it, on what was known as Elizabeth Street North. Early advertisements indicate that Ed JOy and Co. worked in partnership with Andrew Hinchcliff, woolbroker for A. Hinchcliff & Sons. The partnership was dissolved in 1862 and Hinchcliff continued to operate at the subject site. Hinchcliff also leased a house from Thomas Holt in Hay Street (ibid, 2015, 31).

From 1845, Andrew Hinchcliff, reputedly one of the best judges of Australian wool then living, formed a large and lucrative business operating in a dual capacity as a buyer and shipper of wool. Wool-selling brokers formed the link between the producers and the buyers who were the agents of textile mills and HInchcliff was a professional speculator, acting on behalf of principals in Englad. He also established extensive scouring works at Waterloo. In 1864 John Hinchcliff, his only son, joined his father in the trade and in 1882, on his father's death, became senior partner. The firm thereafter conducted as A. Hinchclff, Son & Co. and became widely and favouriably known as one of the oldest and largest firms connected with the wool trade of NSW. Between 20 and 30,000 bales of wool passed annually through the firm for consignment to their London agents, the well-known firm of Edwin Holt & Co., of Leeds and London, although they also conducted local sales on behalf of the growers (ibid, 2015, 32).

It is likely that Hinchcliff had traded at the subject site from at least 1858 (in partnership with Ed Joy & Co., and the site was purchased by Andrew Hinchcliff in 1876. Ownership passed to son John, on his death (ibid, 2015, 32).

The subject store was built in 2 stages. The southern section was built first, and has been dated as early as 1865, however while the site was certainly developed at this time, the City of Sydney Assessment Books indicate that this refers to a previous stage of development (ibid, 2015, 32-33).

1864 was the first recorded entry of the Hinchcliff Wool Store in the Sands Directory, at 1-3 Elizabeth Street North. The City of SYdney Assessment Book records the site in 1867 as occupied by stone and iron structures. THe wool stores were both noted as single storey. It is possible that the single storey structure formed part of the later structure, however this is not consistent with the footprint as the latter building is larger. The 1871 Assessment Book entry records the site as occupied by single storey structures, although the northern store is instead noted as being of stone and iron construction. By 1871 Hinchcliff had leased the adjoining allotment (known as 5 ELizabeth Street North) which incorporated a timber and iron stables and by the late 1870s had also purchased a second store on Castlereagh Street North (later known as 20 Loftus Street). Elizabeth Street North was renamed Young Street by 1896 (ibid, 2015, 33).

The southern store (7 Young Street) was certainly built by 1880 and is recorded in that year's Assessment Book as a three storey brick and stone structure with slate roof. The northern store (5 Young Street) was completed two years later, matching the southern store. The architect or builder of both is unknown (ibid, 2015, 33).

Andrew Hinchcliff, who developed a reputation as one of the best judges of wool in the colony, erected an iron shed in Young Street, at the corner of Custom House Lane, in 1845, and by about 1860 the firm of A Hinchcliff, Son & Co had built a stone wool store next door.

In the late 1880s the iron shed was replaced by a building matching the stone store and erected against its north wall. These are the two connected components that survive today.

Australia's wool industry was hard-hit by the disastrous economic depression of the 1890s. In 1894, ownership of the Hinchcliff Store transferred to Joseph William Dixon, barrister of Summer Hill, who was connected with the Hinchcliff family. Dixon retained ownership until 1903, when it was bought by wool broker Harry Scarth Holt (Artefact, 2017, 20>

In the coming decades the store passed ownership through various woolbrokers (ibid, 2017, 20).
The Bank of NSW, as mortgagor, leased the property in 1937 to German wool buyers.

A mortgagee sale in 1945 saw the property acquired by the Sydney Archdiocese of the Roman Catholic Church. This marked the end of the original use of the buildings as woolstores (ibid, 2017, 20).

In 1949 it passed to the Society of St Vincent de Paul and was named Ozanam House, in acknowledgment of the founder of the Society. The Society operated it as the Catholic United Services Australia Navy Club.

In 1952 part of the building was used as the Matthew Talbot Hostel for homeless or destitute men. It included dormitories, a bookshop and soup kitchen on the ground floor, and barber's shop, and laundry in the basement. With the departure of the Hostel to larger premises, a new chapel was created on the ground floor of the 1880s structure in 1966 (Sydney City Council Heritage Inventory. This chapel space was rented at a nominal rate by the Marist Fathers as a chapel. Today it is the only part of the building recalling 40 years of the Society of St Vincent de Paul's occupancy (Urbis, 2007, 72, 77-82).

The property was sold in 1988 to the AMP Society. The EF International English School has occupied the balance of the building since 1992. (Sydney City Council Heritage Inventory). The Marist Chapel on the ground floor continued to operate on a monthly basis until 21005, when it was merged as part of the language school function. In 2012, the language school was still operating on site, while the former Chapel space was in disuse (ibid, 2007).

In late 2019 International restaurateur Scott Brown has taken the old wool store (Hinchcliff House) in the AMP Capital-backed Quay Quarter Lanes, part of the massive redevelopment of an entire city block on Young and Loftus Streets. Brown has picked a name for its Sicilian basement bar - Apollonia. The ground floor will have an all-day eatery with an on-site bakery and flour mill' Brown says. 'The next level up will be a more refined restaurant'. The top floor will include an event space. Luchetti Krelle will design the venue. This is part of a four-storey mega venue with room for 450 people heading to Circular Quay. Quay Quarter will open in September 2020, surrounded by 20 food and lifestyle venues (Bolles, SMH, 3/12/2019, 2).

In 2021 the first of several eateries opened in the refurbished and adaptively-reused Hinchcliff House: stage 1 of the sprawling Wool Store redevelopment. Entry-level 'Grana' eatery and its attached bakery opened in April 2021 and the rest, over four floors, will follow in coming weeks. A custom benchtop snakes through Grana. 'Apollonia', a basement bar carved out of the (sandstone) bedrock, will open next, followed by eatery 'Lana' and a sprawling function space on the top floor (Bolles, 2021, 2).

Hinchcliff House has been deliciously restored and transformed into a multi-level Italian dining experience by the high-energy House Made Hospitality group. Steps lead down to 'Apollonia', a moody basement bar seemingly dug out of sandstone. Another door slides open to 'Grana', an all-day Italian diner on the ground floor; and a third reveals a serious in-house bakery with its own flour mill. Any of those portals will give access to the first floor; where fine diner 'Lana' sprawls from wall to wall in a lush arrangement of high and low seating, backlit bar, timber beams, banquettes and kitchen (Durack, 2021, 3). Lord Mayor Clover Moore on 2/5/2022 will (formally) open the AMP Capital's Quay Quarter development, a 10-year project encompassing two city blocks that includes the revamped Quay Quarter Tower on Bridge Street and the adjacent Quay Quarter Lanes, a shopping and dining precinct containing the mega-venue Hinchcliff House (Koziol, 2022).

Assessment of significance


SHR Criteria a) [Historical significance]	This building represents a distinctive period when Circular Quay was the centre of the international shipping trade, and wool was Australia's chief export. Its form and quality typify the kind of woolstore, now very uncommon, that was built merely to store wool as opposed to later woolstores with saw tooth southlight roofs which were built to display the wool as well. It is historically important for its association with the St Vincent de Paul Society which occupied the building for forty years, including its use as a hostel in the 1950s. Has historic significance at a State level. (Sydney City Council Heritage Inventory)
SHR Criteria c) [Aesthetic significance]	The interior structure of heavy timber posts, girders seated on stone bolsters, joists and timber flooring is typical of the pre-southlight type of warehouse constructed later in the century. The roof trusses, formed of dressed timber members with common rafters underlaid by boarding to form an attractive ceiling, are unusual. The cathead beam structures and large hoist pulley that characterise the manual lifting of wool to the upper floors are significant. The many loading doorways must have facilitated rapid handling of the wool. Has aesthetic significance at a State level. (Sydney City Council Heritage Inventory)
SHR Criteria d) [Social significance]	Intrinsically attractive, this building is an intact and small composition. Its facade, which addresses three streets, makes an important contribution to the streetscape of Circular Quay. It is also an interesting example of matching designs used in two periods of construction and for its evidence of several campaigns of adaptive re-use. It has aesthetic significance as a representative of the older gable roofed warehouse style, the function of which can still be interpreted. (Sydney City Council Heritage Inventory)
SHR Criteria f) [Rarity]	It is now a rare example of a building type that preceded the period when wool was displayed and sold to agents locally. (Sydney City Council Heritage Inventory)
