Reference numberE000254DescriptionThe former Courthouse, constructed of Fremantle limestone in 1899, is an example of a building designed in the Federation Academic Classical style by the Public Works Department. Fremantle Courthouse (fmr) and Police Station Complex formed part of the original convict land grant that was established as part of the Fremantle Convict Establishment in 1851. The site, originally used for barracks and warders' quarters, was taken over by the police in 1888, and since then has maintained links to both the Police and Fremantle Prison.Date1985PhotographerWatkins, SkipPhotograph FormatPhotographDigital ItemYes
