The place is a modest example of a commercial building dating from the first decades of the twentieth century and makes a contribution to the Fremantle Town Centre streetscape.
Two storey rendered stone building which has a parapeted roof fronting a zincalume hipped roof..
High Street was named by Surveyor General Roe - as was customary in English towns, the main street of the town was named High Street. Eastward from William Street the roadway was completed by convict labour after the Town Hall was built in 1887. High Street around the Town Hall closed to traffic in 1966. The High Street Mall was trialled in November 1973 and made a permanent pedestrian mall in 1975. Rate Book research was not conclusive in determining an accurate date of construction.
This place was adopted onto the Fremantle MHI and the Heritage List by the decision of Council on 28/09/2011.
