South Terrace was formerly called Mandurah Road. It followed the line of ancient Aboriginal tracks and was the main entrance to Fremantle from the south. Mandurah Road used to continue south along the coast, but owing to shifting sand dunes, it was necessary to make a deviation to Douro Road and travel further inland. In 1903, a foundry was built on Lots 16 and 17 for Chalmers and Brown. In 1906, the improvements were listed as ‘foundry and sheds’. The partnership of Chalmers and Brown dissolved in 1913/14, and the property was bought by Harriett Phillips. In 1914/15, only sheds were listed on the property. The following year, a cottage (Lot 16) and shed (Lot 17) were listed. The street address was then 314 Mandurah Road. Harriett Phillips continued to own the property until the mid-1930s, when it was purchased by Christian Andre. The cottage (Lot 16) was a rental property for most of this time. A house was built on Lot 17 (446 South Terrace) in 1949. A diagram dated 1954 shows a long, narrow galvanised iron building. A cottage was later built on the lot. In 1982, the property was acquired by the Metropolitan Region Planning Association. In 1992, a photographic record was completed of a timber framed and asbestos clad residence at 444 South Terrace. An application to demolish the cottage was made the same year.
