This property has historical interest only as the location of a now demolished heritage place. The existing development on the site has little significance.
Historic building / structures demolished.
Scott Street was named for Captain Daniel Scott, the first Harbour Master and first chairman of the Fremantle Town Trust.
Duplex, 27 Scott Street was built in 1901/02 for William Pilling, a storeman. In 1903/04, a semi-detached cottage was built alongside this cottage for Gustav Hassey, a labourer.
Pilling retained ownership of the duplex half until at his death in 1925/26. It was then owned by his widow, Annie, until c. 1935, when it was purchased and occupied by Dorothy Read. Ms Read retained ownership until 1956/57, when it was purchased by Nicola and Luisa De Rosa. The De Rosas retained ownership until at least 1974.
The duplex half was demolished c. 1984 and in 1996, the City of Fremantle received an application for a new two storey residence on the vacant land.
During the 2019 Annual Update of the Municipal Inventory and Heritage List the heritage significance of this place was reviewed and it was found that the heritage listing referred to a building or structure that had legally been demolished in the past. It also found that the existing buildings and structures on the site do meet the threshold for inclusion on the Heritage List.
On 25 July 2019 Fremantle Council resolved to remove this place from the Heritage List and to change the Municipal Heritage Inventory category to Historic Record Only to record the earlier history of the site.
This property has been redeveloped since the heritage elements were demolished and it is unlikely that any significant undisturbed archaeological material remains on site.
DEMOLISHED- retained on MHI database for historical information purposes only.
