Heritage ThemesStatement Of SignificanceThis property has historical interest only as the location of a now demolished heritage place. The existing development on the site has little significance.ArchaeologyThis property has been redeveloped since the heritage elements were demolished and it is unlikely that any significant undisturbed archaeological material remains on site.ConditionDEMOLISHEDHistoryIn 1956 a residence was built for the owner, Alfred David McDougall. The property remained in the McDougall family until 1980. Typical 1950s asbestos clad, tiled roof house. Plans were submitted for a carport in 1972. Aerial photos show that the property was redeveloped between 1995 and 1998 - further historical research required. During the 2019 Annual Update of the Municipal Inventory and Heritage List the heritage significance of this place was reviewed and it was found that the heritage listing referred to a building or structure that had legally been demolished in the past. It also found that the existing buildings and structures on the site do meet the threshold for inclusion on the Heritage List. On 25 July 2019 Fremantle Council resolved to remove this place from the Heritage List and to change the Municipal Heritage Inventory category to Historic Record Only to record the earlier history of the site.Physical DescriptionTwo storey brick house with hipped corrugated iron roof c. 1990s.
