History

Phyllis Street is a small residential street located near the Swan River. It was originally called Davies/Davis Street and although the change of name to Phyllis Street was recorded in the 1918 Post Office Directory, it did not appear on the North Fremantle rate records until 1924. In 1939, Phyllis Street was recorded as a limestone track with only a few houses on the southern side of the street. House, 6 Phyllis Street was a timber house constructed in 1950. Storeman, John Alfred Onley was recorded as the owner in 1953 and he retained ownership until 1981. In 1965, a sleep out was built at the back of the house and one of the side windows relocated. Aerial photographs show that the house was demolished between Feb 2009 and March 2010.
