Aesthetically significant as an example of Fremantle’s vernacular architecture. Typical attached pair of cottages dating from the early twentieth century. Historically significant as a representation of working people’s living conditions in the Fremantle area.
Single storey stone with brick quoining duplex, 139 has a zincalume hipped roof and 141 has a terracotta tile (probably not original) hipped roof. There is a bull nosed verandah which is supported by chamfered timber posts. The following places form a significant group and contribute to the streetscape of Edmund Street; 112, 117, 119, 125, 127, 128, 129, 130, 132, 133, 134, 135, 137, 139, 141, 149, 154, 155, 161, 162, 164, 167 & 169.
