History
It was one of eight buildings on Lot 12 in 1906, when it was leased to jeweller Thomas Bastian Ellies. Ellies was the most famous of the Broome pearl cleaners and most likely occupied the place as his family residence. In 1910, pearler Edmund Hunter purchased Lot 12 and used 3 Napier Terrace for his own pearling operations. Pearl dealer William Rosenthal leased 3 Napier Terrace from 1921 to 1938. In 1947, Phyllis McDaniel purchased part of Lot 12. In 1952, the building at No. 3 was demolished and rebuilt. From 1953 to 1965, it housed some of the McDaniel's dive crew. In the 1970s, Phyllis McDaniel subdivided Lot 12 and sold the buildings. Pensioners Colin and Mary Parsons bought 3 Napier Terrace and lived there until Colin Parsons died in 1981. The place had a number of corporate owners in the 1980s, including Broome Preservation Society Inc, associated with Lord McAlpine. Joybelle's Ladies Wear was the tenant for most of this period. In 1992, the owners, Malldale Pty Ltd restored the place. In 1997 Wendy Albert established the Kimberley Book Shop.
