10 Albert Street, Claremont is a fine representative example of a Federation Bungalow residence that later represented the establishment of private schools as an important element of the social history of Claremont.
Single-storey brick structure. Square plan form with surrounding verandahs. The high-pitched roof is hipped and has high face brick chimneys with corbelled detail. The verandah has turned timber posts with decorative brackets, and criss-cross timber balustrade. The frontage is symmetrical with central front door flanked by single double hung windows.
James Morrison subdivided Swan Location 702 in 1880. Location 702 is a 28-hectare block extending from Parry Street to Stirling Road and from the railway to Stirling Highway. Morrison offered the land in 8000sqm lots for £2 each. The Superintendent of Public Works, George Temple Poole, and insurance company principal George H. Johnston each bought a block overlooking Stirling Highway. Johnston built ‘Hinemoa’ which he occupied until 1907 when it was sold to Alexander Clark Munro, State Manager of Millar’s Karri and Jarrah Co. When St Louis College occupied the site, the original house was used for the College’s administration.
