History
Malcolm Street was named for Sir Malcolm Fraser, the Commissioner of Lands and First Agent General for Western Australia in London (1892).
According to the oral history of Mavis Hinks, the original owner of number 9 was a sea captain named Mcquire. He also lived in number 11 at one point. Mcquire had four sons and one daughter. Mavis's father was a runaway from Sydney. He was sentenced as a boy to six months on a truancy ship on Sydney Harbour. At the end of six months he absconded to another ship and ended up in Western Australia. Captain Mcquire took him in as a son.
As Mavis's father outlived all Captain Mcquires children, the property passed to him. He was a fisherman and had a boat called "May". Mavis was born in number 9 and lived in all three houses on the lot.
This place received a Fremantle Award in 1996 - Winner in the Heritage Category.
