Benjamin Copley, an influential member of the Bayswater community.

Timber frame and jarrah weather board cottage with corrugated iron hip roof and separate bull-nose iron roof across the front supported on tubular steel poles. Central front door has top and side lights and is flanked by a double hung wooden sash window on each side.

History

The land on which this house was built was purchased in 1905 by Jas Broomhall, painter, then resident in Rose Avenue. The house was built in 1906. A typical tradesman's cottage built by a workshops employee makes this a class Copley Street building of the 1904-1907 period.
