10945 Thompson Road Precinct
DEMOLISHED. Retained on MHI for historical information only.
Thompson Road was named for George Thompson (1838-1874), Fremantle's first town clerk (1871-73). The street is mainly residential, with some commercial development at the northern end between Alfred Road and McCabe Road. The majority of the houses were built c. 1900. Only a few lots on the street remained vacant in the 1920s. House, 60 Thompson Road was built at some time between 1904 and 1922, by which time Sadie Cupitt was listed as the owner and occupier of the five roomed timber house. She lived there for a time before letting it to tenant, James Hewatt. Sadie and James married and they lived there until at least 1936. A 1939 diagram shows House, 60 Thompson Road as being a weatherboard house with a half length front verandah and a full length rear verandah. At the rear of the house was an extensive paved area leading between a number of outbuildings. By 1941/42, the house was occupied by Herbert H Cole, who lived there until 1974. It has had a couple of owners since this time. It is not known when the house was demolished. The place was included in the list of heritage places in the City of Fremantle identified by the Fremantle Society (1979/80) - RED -significant for contributing to the unique character of Fremantle.
