Fair to good This shop was constructed in 1933 for Kalamunda's first qualified pharmacist, Miss L. C. Witham. The contractor was Frederick James Elson who undertook several building projects in town as well managing a small orchard. His contract price to undertake the work was £750. Plans for the original building are held by the Kalamunda and Districts Historical Society Collection. Miss Witham opened the premises in 1934 as the 'Kalamunda Pharmacy'.
