The place is a good example of a brick residence in the Federation Queen Anne style, representing the expansion of Fremantle in the gold boom period of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The place contributes to a substantially intact late nineteenth and early twentieth century streetscape close to the centre of Fremantle.
Single storey brick and rendered banding house which has a zincalume hipped and gabled roof and a verandah which returns on the north side and is supported by timber posts, brackets and balustrades.This place contains a limestone feature (the boundary wall).
High Street was named by Surveyor General Roe - as was customary in English towns, the main street of the town was named High Street. Eastward from William Street the roadway was completed by convict labour after the Town Hall was built in 1887. High Street around the Town Hall closed to traffic in 1966. The High Street Mall was trialled in November 1973 and made a permanent pedestrian mall in 1975. A cottage was built for Caroline Hill in 1912/13. It was sewered in 1913. The first occupant was J Manners Hill.
