Aesthetically significant as an example of Fremantle’s vernacular architecture. Typical timber framed single storey cottage dating from the first decades of the twentieth century. Historically significant as a representation of working people’s living conditions in the Fremantle area.
Single storey timber framed and weatherboard clad walls with indented profile and tile (probably not original) gable roofed house. There is a brick chimney and a dropped veranda supported by timber posts between timber brackets. The gabled front room is probably not original. The following places form a significant precinct group and contribute to the streetscapes of Pilbarra, Wright and Yilgarn Streets; 1, 3, 5, 7, 10, 11 12, 15, 16 & 17 Pilbarra Street, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10 & 12 Wright Street, 3, 7 & 11 Yilgarn Street.
A cottage, belonging to James Strain, is recorded on Lot 25 of 29 in 1910/11. On file at the Local History Collection: Photos from 1978.
