History

Duplex, 130-132 Marine Terrace was built c. 1900. In 1901/02, No 130 was owned by Alfred Kidson and occupied by Leopold Druce, an auctioneer. A sewerage diagram dated 1907 shows Duplex, 130 Marine Terrace as a large brick house fronting the property boundaries on both Marine Terrace and Ada Street, with a verandah wrapping the corner. At the rear of the house was a weatherboard bathroom and verandah. A large weatherboard outbuilding was located behind the house. There was a common wall between this house and No. 132 next door. Alfred Kidson owned the cottage until his death in the 1950s. Long-term tenant Peter Graham lived in the house from c. 1925 until the early 1960s, even after it was bought by Mavis Mews. Mavis Mews still owned House, 130 Marine Terrace in 1981. It continued to be a rental property throughout this time. This place was included in the list of heritage places in the City of Fremantle identified by the Fremantle Society (1979/80) - BROWN -significant for making a positive contribution to the built environment of Fremantle.
