History

House, 274 South Terrace was built in 1898 for Christine Miller. It is listed in the rate book for that year as a weatherboard cottage of five rooms. In 1901/02, Mrs Bruce Johnson was listed as the occupant of the cottage. By 1920/21, the house was owned by Fred Outrim and occupied by B & J Stocks. Joseph Wilson bought the property the following year and the Stocks continued to live in the house until c. 1940. A Metropolitan Sewerage plan dated 1954 shows a weatherboard house of irregular plan form, with a projecting front room and half length front verandah. To the rear, there were asbestos and galvanised iron additions and a small verandah. In the early 1970s, the City of Fremantle advised the owner that the cottage was in need of extensive repair. Only minor work was undertaken at this time. In 1978, the new owner applied to replace the existing weatherboard with single leaf brickwork. This work was approved. A garage/store shed was added c. 1985.
