Albany Bell Hatchery (fmr)

Uses

Creation Date

Publish place record online (inHerit):

Last Update

Statement of Significance

The place has significance as one of the first dedicated chicken hatcheries in Perth. It has an association with Peter Albany Bell and the Bell family, who were influential members of the community. It is unusual as agricultural buildings were generally not designed by architects - this building was designed by Powell, Cameron & Chisholm, notable architects within the region. It is representative of the Inter-War functionalist architectural style.

Physical Description

The majority of this building has been demolished with only the front façade remaining. Development approval for a multi-unit development was granted in 2005 with the retention of the façade wall as part of the development. The place was a well proportioned and executed example of the Inter-War Functionalist Style applied to an industrial building. The building was built in face and rendered brickwork. Under floor exposed external walls were in rustic limestone block. Brick piers were expressed in the front facade and side elevations giving structural support to the building walls. The entry porch is covered by a curved, counter levered, two tired concrete canopy and flanked by a brick squat corner tower element with rendered brick banded parapets to each side, giving the otherwise domestic character of the building a monumental effect. Other aspects of the building sides and rear exhibit typical domestic construction forms, with a pitched tile roof and overhanging eaves. Although original painted timber double hung windows are located at the side and rear of the building, what would have been timber windows at the street facade have been replaced with anodised aluminium sliding windows. The large Moreton Bay Fig Tree to the west of the building is a landmark and contributes to the streetscape.

History

The place was the premises of one of the first dedicated chicken hatcheries in Perth. It was established by the Bell family. Peter Albany Bell, father of Albany Matson Bell who established the chicken hatchery, was an important manufacturer and philanthropist in the early years of the twentieth century. Prior to subdivision, the hatchery was part of Peter Albany Bell's estate, comprising the 'Castle' building, completed in 1914 and developed on garden principles. Albany Bell Hatchery (fmr) was designed by architects Powell, Cameron and Chisholm and is an unusual example of an architect designed hatchery at a time when most buildings associated with the agricultural industry were accommodated in vernacular structures. The firm also designed the nearby Albany Bell Castle factory buildings for Peter Albany Bell in the 1910s. The house, garage/carport and warehouse building situated on the south-western section of the lot have little heritage significance.

Physical Description

House, 99 Guildford Road, Mount Lawley (1918) is a single storey brick and iron house retaining many original features, with a rear extension from the 1980s. However, windows have been replaced with aluminium frames. The symmetrical façade has a central door flanked by windows, and a verandah extends across the front. The façade has smooth render to the lower section and rough cast render to the upper, divided by the timber dado. An old external toilet remains extant in the rear garden. The front entrance opens into a hallway with has four rooms opening off it, and there is a large open plan area at the rear of the house. The first four rooms comprise the 1918 section of the property. Internal features include original timber doors (the front door has side and high lights), decorative plasterwork and mantelpieces. Although the 1980s addition has a skillion roof, the dining area has a flat plasterboard ceiling while the living area has a raked ceiling.

History

The area in which House, 99 Guildford Road, Mount Lawley, is now situated was originally part of the Maylands Estate. This had been purchased by the Gold Estates of Australia company, presumably to create a good financial return on the profits from gold mining. Despite its proximity to the CBD, the area had remained underdeveloped due to the poor roads servicing the proposed estate. However, the company was able to persuade the City of Perth to subsidise better transport infrastructure. The development of Maylands and Mount Lawley was a result of the increased population following the gold boom. The residential subdivision in which House, 99 Guildford Road, Mount Lawley is located was originally subdivided for development in 1899. However, Lot 568, the site of the future House, 99 Guildford Road, was not developed until 1918. The majority of lots between Second and Third Avenues were developed in the period between 1915 and 1920.

Statement of Significance

This place is a representative example of the grand style houses built in Mount Lawley at the time of early settlement. Since 1935, it has historic importance for its social and civic functions as a hospital.

Physical Description

Now surrounded by hospital development, the grand house is still legible and some sense of Robinson's house in its landscape setting is still possible. It was made in the grand Edwardian style with 30 rooms, four bathrooms and two external staff quarters. It was a two storey brick and tile building with timber construction verandahs and tiled rooves. It had stucco baning and decorative sill treatments. The house sits high on pillow limestone foundations and features tile hung valances.

History

Killowen and its grounds are important as part of the story of the development of larger properties in Mount Lawley and has significant vestiges of an important riverside landscape. The house was built for solicitor Robert Robinson in 1903 and named after the Lord Chief Justice in the UK, Lord Killowen. Robinson was on the Perth Road Board and was later elected to state parliament and at one stage was the treasurer of WA. He died in 1926 and in 1935 the Sisters of Mercy acquired it for St Anne's Hospital. It appears that at this time the place became known as 'Killowen House.' Significant alterations were carried out, including a two storey extension, a lift tower and a new porch on the west elevation. Further details can be found in the Palassis Architects submission on the draft MI which can be found under PF/142 volume 3.
