Historic/Archaeological Site

Where a place has cultural heritage significance as a result of its former use or because of buildings or structures that formerly existed on the site, interpretive signage such as a plaque should be erected to provide information on the history of the place. If the place is privately owned, Council should encourage the owner to provide interpretive signage and provide assistance where possible to the owner to ensure that any historical information is accurate (i.e. obtained from a reliable source). Archaeology Where development is proposed on the site of a former significant structure or building, an archaeological survey should be carried out prior to development to determine firstly the likelihood or archaeological material being found and secondly whether archaeological excavation is appropriate. The site survey should be carried out by an appropriately qualified historical archaeologist. If recommended an archaeological excavation should be carried out prior to development. Alternatively, an archaeological monitoring brief should be established to ensure that any material discovered during construction is investigated. This brief requires work to stop until an archaeologist has investigated the site in the event of material being uncovered during normal construction works.

History

Francisco Street is named after Alexander Francisco, who was associated with Lionel Samson & Son. He later conducted a spirit merchant’s business of his own, and held the position of postmaster. He was also on the Fremantle Town Trust in 1848, 1857-63 and again 1865-66. Francisco Street was developed in the late 1890s.
House, 9 Francisco Street has been built by 1898. In that year, it was owned by Edward Weston and occupied by John Peat. By 1900, the property was owned and occupied by John Attwood. Although Mr Atwood was still listed as the owner in 1912/13, William Franklin was the occupant in that year.
By 1922/23, House 9 Francisco Street was owned and occupied by John Manuel. Priscilla Nicholls was the owner and occupier in 1932/33.
A Metropolitan Sewerage plan dated 1954 shows a small weatherboard residence with a full length front verandah and a smaller rear verandah. There was also an asbestos addition at the rear. A path led from the back door to a toilet located at the back of the yard.
Between the mid-1950s and c. 1980, the property changed hands many times. Owners during this time included Mary Rooke (early 1950s); Frederick Lange (early 1960s); Maria Pellicone and Mr Gianbattista (late 1960s); A and G Parisse (early 1970s) and Pietro and Maria Sepede (late 1970s).
It is not known when the house was demolished.
