History
Bald Rock was originally a suburb within the municipality of Balmain, so named because of the lack of vegetation in the area. The hotel was built in 1876 and prior to landfill occupied a position close to the Bald Rock ferry, which carried passengers from Balmain to Erskine Street wharf in Sydney city.[http://www.baldrockhotel.com.au Bald Rock Hotel website]; Accessed October 2006
The pub is listed on the Inner West Council local government heritage register. The three-storey building with facestone work to ground level has a simple hung awning over the street. The original construction was in the Victorian Filigree style, however removal of the upper level balcony and other modifications now leave a building in the Victorian Free Classical style. The hotel has retained the original sandstone interior.{{cite NSW SHR|1940276|Bald Rock Hotel|date= |accessdate=1 October 2006}}
