Heritage ThemesDEMOGRAPHIC SETTLEMENT & MOBILITY: SettlementsHistoryA Fremantle Harbour Works Plan from 1898 (PWD 6409) does not indicate the attached pair had been built at that stage. The duplex was originally 6-8, and became Nos. 3-5 when the whole street was renumbered in 1937. It later became No. 5-7. Post office directories first list No 5 in 1903 and No. 7 in 1904 but the pair was probably built at the same time. The first occupant was George Wise. Residents changed often in the early years, suggesting the property was a rental. A 1913 plan (PWD 13017) and the 1914 Sewerage Plan (No 2033) show the brick attached pair. The plan is a mirror image, with a full length front verandah, and side verandahs on the side elevations. There is a weatherboard room on the outer rear corner, with another half-length verandah at the rear. Some long-term residents were Mrs Olivia A. Phipps (c1920-1927) and William Boyling, who lived at No. 7 from 1937 until at least 1949 (when post office directory records cease). After undergoing renovations and additions. No. 7 was nominated for the City of Fremantle Heritage Awards in 2006.
