Spaces between Henderson's cottages south of the hotel were filled with additional, attached cottages, garden walls were built, and variegated brickwork was unified with stucco. At the north end of the Bay terraced houses were built at the seafront from 1972, continuing the effect of Henry Vincent's sea wall and the close association of the Board cottage with the beach. The pattern of cottage improvement and development south of the hotel was repeated at Bathurst Point by the same architects from 1975.
