The place has historic and aesthetic significance as a fine example of a small public building in the Federation Arts and Crafts style constructed as part of the water supply and deep sewerage systems service to Perth and Fremantle developed by the Government of Western Australia.
166 Marine Terrace is a single storey painted stone and Colorbond gabled roof former pumping station. The walls are painted limestone. The roof is a new Colorbond hipped roof with a small central gable. There are three timber framed windows in the Marine Terrace elevation.
Lot 40/1 of 6 in Fitzgerald Terrace (later Marine Terrace) was acquired by the Western Australian Government in 1914/15 for the purposes of erecting a sewerage pumping station. The pumping station was built c. 1913, when many houses in South Fremantle were connected to the deep sewerage system. For a discussion of the development of Perth and Fremantle’s sewerage systems, see Heritage Council of Western Australia, ‘Register of Heritage Places: Low Level Pumping Stations 1 & 2, Perth’.
