Reference numberE000256DescriptionThe Port Flour Mill is a two storey limestone building built circa 1862 to mill flour for the district of Fremantle, and for export. By 1865-6, the Essex Street mill was leased to T. & H. Carter & Co. of Fremantle,5 who, in June 1866, entered a bag of their flour in the Intercolonial Exhibition in Melbourne. In May 1993, planning approval for the restoration and conversion of the old Flour Mill to seven residential units was given. The development entailed the retention and restoration of all surviving elements of the old mill including external details.Date1985PhotographerWatkins, SkipPhotograph FormatPhotographDigital ItemYes
