Aesthetically significant as an example of Fremantle’s vernacular architecture. Typical single storey stone cottage dating from the late nineteenth to early twentieth century. Historically significant as a representation of working people’s living conditions in the Fremantle area. Has undergone significant alterations but original form remains intact.
Single storey stone and brick quoining and a zincalume hipped roof house. The roof has a brick chimney with corbelling and extends over the veranda which is supported by masonry pillars (probably not original). The following places form a significant group and contribute to the streetscape of Samson Street; 23, 25, 26, 28, 31, 30, 32, 34, 35, 41, 43, 45, 49, 51, 55, 57, 59, 61, and the Norfolk Pines.
Lot 30 of 29 is recorded as a vacant lot in 1919. A residence is recorded in 1930. A 1978 photo is on file at the Local History Collection.
