The place is historically significant as a former bank representing the development of Fremantle’s Old Port City as a centre of commerce and trade from the gold boom period of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The place is significant because, when viewed from the street, it is a substantially intact example of a commercial building which contributes to the very significant Old Port City of Fremantle.
Single storey building, face brick and zincalume hipped and small gable roof, fronted by a low pilastered parapet. There is a tall brick chimney with corbelling. The building has a diagonal setback from the pavement and low front steps. Rendered pilasters with ashlar effect, flank the stucco arched entrances of the building, the doors have fanlights. The façade also features stucco string course and arch over the windows and rendered bands to the cornices.
