Statement of Significance
Male Residence (fmr) is significant for associations with generations of the pioneering Male family, prominent business identities in Broome’s history. It is a representative example typical of early 1900s residences located in expansive settings in the old Broome townsite.
Physical Description
The single storey timber framed structure is clad with horizontal corrugated iron walls. The hipped roof is also clad with corrugated iron. There is a more recent detached double storey section. The residence has been extensively altered and extended.
History
Constructed c.1910 by Piggotts for the Male family of Streeter and Male. Occupied first by Archie Male and his wife Annie (Biddles), who raised four children. Archie Male was Mayor of Broome 1915-1918. Following Archie’s death in 1922, only his eldest son Theodore remained in Broome. Theodore ran several of the Streeter and Male companies for the next twenty years before retiring to the south. Archie’s nephew, Arthur Streeter (Sam) Male, later occupied the family residence. Sam married first in 1925, to Eleanor Piggot, who died two years later. His second wife was Phyllis Quigley, with whom he had two sons, Richard and Kimberley (Kim). Sam Male died in 1976 and Phyllis Male retained the residence until about 1997, when the property passed out of Male family ownership.
