It derives its name from John Stephen Hampton (1810-1869), the Governor of WA from 1862-68. He was previously Comptroller of Convicts in Tasmania. His son, G. E. Hampton, was Acting Comptroller-General of the Fremantle Convict Establishment. The land on which house 206 Hampton Road stands was vacant and owned by Harold Richard Hastings in 1920/21. In 1922/23 Hastings had a house built and he was the owner/occupier from this time until at least 1951/52. The house was originally numbered 312 and changed in 1935/36 to 176 Hampton Road. In 1951/52 the house was assigned its current number. The house is on Pt 154 of CSL 134. This place was identified by the Fremantle Society in 1979/80 as being of cultural heritage significance.
