History
Collie St is named after Dr Alex Collie, R.N. Surgeon on H.M.S. Sulphur, and Colonial Surgeon. With Lieut. Preston, Collie explored the Collie and Preston Rivers. Dr Collie was later Government Resident at Albany.
The cottage is first recorded as built in 1880, owned by John O' Grady, described as a four-roomed cottage in 1885. Additions were carried out in 1939 and 1953, the latter by Allen & Nicholas Architects. This included replacing the original roof with tiles. The house was used as boarding house from 1976-1993. A proposed development into a café in 1993 was refused by Council, however it was subsequently approved, as the place is currently (2002), a Café-Pizzeria.
