History
Messrs Congdon, Higham and Abbott subdivided this area of North Fremantle in the early 1890s. The residential lots were gradually sold off, and by 1905, the Higham Road had been declared a public highway. The road was named for John Joseph Higham, one of the original developers. Several of the lots remained undeveloped until the inter-war period.
Sited on the corner of Corkhill Street, the house at 10 Higham Road was owned and occupied by William H. Palethorpe in 1921-22, but was presumably constructed prior to this time. Palethorpe lived there for several years, but records indicate that he had moved out by 1923-34, when Horace Albert Rickards was recorded as being the occupant. Rickards subsequently bought the house and continued to live there until c. 1946. Post Office Directories list W.D. Lyngcoln as the next occupier, and Rates records from 1955 record Ena F. Lyngcoln as the owner and occupier.
A 1939 plan shows House, 10 Higham Road as being a large weatherboard house.
The house was demolished in 1988.
