History
One of the timber cottages built in the townsite for the accommodation of railway workers. As a major centre for railways there was need for a dedicated railway workforce in the town. Accommodation was provided by the company which owned and managed the town, Millar's Timber and Trading Company.
The materials for the cottages were likely to have been manufactured in the workshop and local tradesmen built the homes to a standard design.
This building was burnt down by the January 2016 Yarloop/Harvey/Waroona Fire. The chimney was left standing however has since been deemed structurally unsound and was subsequently removed.
