Hampton Road was originally called Prison Road. It derives its name from John Stephen Hampton (1810-1869), the Governor of WA from 1862-68. He was previously Comptroller of Convicts in Tasmania. His son, G. E. Hampton, was Acting Comptroller-General of the Fremantle Convict Establishment. House, 158 Hampton Road first appears in the Fremantle rate books in 1893 as a two room cottage owned by William D Moore and occupied by George Brown, a boatman. In 1901/02 the owner was Mrs W D Moore and the tenant Mrs A Mayhew and in 1905/06 Annie Moore was the owner and Annie Thompson the occupant. Annie would own the dwelling until her death circa 1940. During this time Annie had many tenants including Michael Maloney in 1910/1916, William Haddon in 1920/21, John Anderson in 1925/26, Matilda Vagg in 1930/31 and Alfred Kenneth Chamberlain in the late 1930s. After Annie’s death the house changed hands several times; first, to Stanley Fraser Gibson in 1940/41, with Emily Jones his tenant, then in 1945/46 to Miss Kate Ellen Mathews, who also resided at the house. By 1951/52 the owner was Blossom Georgina Weedon and no occupant was listed. The house was originally numbered 208 Hampton Road. In 1935/36 this changed to 124 and the current number was assigned in 1951/52. The house is on Lot 11 of 19. This place was included on the list of heritage places in the City of Fremantle identified by the Fremantle Society in 1979/80.
