Aesthetically significant as an example of Fremantle’s vernacular architecture. Typical local shop and attached residence dating from the mid twentieth century. Historically significant as a representation of commercial activity in the Fremantle area.
Shop & House (fmr), 55 South Street is a single storey brick, limestone and zincalume corner shop building constructed in 1954. The walls are face brick and limestone and are set on the front boundary line of both streets. The roof is hipped and clad with replacement zincalume behind a front parapet wall. There is a timber front door to the truncated corner and aluminium shop front windows to both street elevations. A bullnose corrugated iron awning extends across the corner down both sides of the shop front.
