Marwick’s Shed is significant as a rare example of local 19th century vernacular construction techniques that utilise a timber structure to create a large volume without internal load-bearing walls. It exemplifies the strategic location of York (and Newcastle Street) as a route for transporting supplies to the goldfields prior to the completion of the Perth-Coolgardie railway line. The place functioned as an early form of depot for William Marwick's York-based road haulage business and as such is a memorial to the lives of William Marwick (snr) and his descendants who have played a leading role in the civic and business affairs of York for over 125 years. The building has a rustic appearance having acquired patina through many years of exposure to the elements, serving as a local landmark. It is of considerable significance to the historic townscape of York.
Marwick’s Shed is a large timber framed vernacular building with relatively low masonry external walls and a dominant pitched roof clad in galvanised corrugated iron. It is a rare example of local 19th century vernacular construction techniques, particularly the employment of a timber structure to create a large volume without internal load-bearing walls. It is a rare building type. Few vernacular structures of similar form and age are known to exist in Western Australia.
Samuel Evans Burges of Tipperary owned the site during which time William Marwick worked for and was closely associated with him, until Burges left in the state 1897. In 1899 the land was formerly transferred to William Marwick and sons. By which time, the 1876 building had been utilised for over 20 years as a storage and stabling facility for William Marwick’s transport and trading business. As farming became a more central focus of the family business in the early 1900s, the “Shed” became the central base for the management of their various properties. However by the 1960s, that was no longer practical and the place was mostly vacant and deteriorated. Gordon Marwick, the owner, is a great grandson of William Marwick, and resides directly opposite the “Shed” and has undertaken several stages of conservation works and storm repairs in recent decades.

Residence, 60 Newcastle Street is a significant example of the development of a site with associations since the early settlement in York. The close association with Pensioner Guard James Whitely, and the ways of life that are no longer practiced, including the possibility of it being a former Inn, are of considerable historical significance. The building evidences several periods of development and demonstrates the periods of development on the east side of the Avon River, and in Newcastle Street in particular. It makes a significant contribution to the history and the historical townscape of York.
Two single storey buildings are defined and connected. The original c.1850 residence faces north on the north side of the c.1907 Federation addition that presents to the street frontage. The c.1850 form and fabric is identified by the modest scale, hipped roof, front veranda supported by square timber posts. The c.1907 Federation addition presents a facetted gable bay to the street frontage. It is rendered masonry with a hipped roof and gable front feature.
Irish Pensioner Guard James Whitely and his wife Johannah were the first owners of the cottage. Originally shingled. It is claimed there was a cellar used for curing meats, and the possibility that the place was a coaching house or inn at some stage.

Northam Road Well is one of several wells that the York Municipal Council constructed to provide the town’s community with water. Northam Road well, and others, were a critical source of water to particularly during drought periods. It has been retained in good condition, (maybe the only remaining intact well?) and makes a significant contribution to informing the historical development of the town of York.
The well is located on the road verge and is covered with a metal grate at ground level with a metal pipe-rail surrounding barrier. The well is stone lined and appears to be in good condition.
In January 1878, during along hot summer and a long that drought continued, there was mention of well sinking taking place throughout the areas everyone’s water supplies are exhausted. The report states “By the bye we ought to feel under a great obligation to our commends the late Municipal Council for their energy last year in sinking an almost inexhaustible well of pure fresh water. It supplies pretty well all of the town; there is great traffic to and from it all day through, and altogether it is a blessing in the absence of rain.” In 1896, it was report in the Council Minutes that Cr Harvey stated, “that several ratepayers had pointed out to him that the necessity of staining the well in the Northam road as a portion of it had fallen in.” The Council resolved to advise the Works Committee to inspect the well. A letter was also tabled from Dr Davis, the Health Officer addressed to the Secretary of the Board advising of his examination of the water for the well, and for a rough test of seven samples, showed they were “absolutely unfit for human consumption. I should recommend these waters be boiled before using.” It was resolved to advertise in The Chronicle warning people to boil the water as a precaution before use.

Prunster’s Cottage, 2974 Northam - York Road is an unusual, if not rare example of dichromatic (reverse tone) Flemish bond brickwork, with the darker of the contrasting colour in the stretcher rather than the header bricks, providing a very different aesthetic of considerable significance. The decorative timber on the entry gable is also unusual, making this example of Victorian Georgian architecture quite special. Historically significant for associations with the Prunster and Marwick families. It makes a considerable contribution to the historical townscape of York.
One residence was evident on the site: Set in a cottage garden with a short setback from a rustic timber front boundary fence, the single storey residence is a brick construction with distinctive reverse tone Flemish bond brickwork to the symmetrical front faced. It features dark brick stretchers brick, unlike the usual dichromatic brickwork that has dark brick headers. The simple hipped roof break pitch over the front veranda that is supported by stop chamfered timber posts and features a central gable delineating the entry. The gable is detailed in delicate timbers on the barge boards with an inverted finial at the apex. The central front door is four panelled with a distinctive fanlight with geometric panes of glass. 36 Suburban Road also has the same Flemish bond brickwork.
The Prunster and Marwick families had associations with the place. The record states there are two cottages on the site Prunster’s (brick and iron) and Barnes’ (stone and iron) and that they were part of a farm that was subdivided. The property includes an early orchard site. A carrier business once operated from the site.

The place has aesthetic value as a simple mud brick residence in the Victorian Georgian style.
The place has associations with the development of the York area since the mid nineteenth century.
The place has associations with the transportation of convicts to the colony in the 1850s, and in particular with the provision of land and accommodation for the pensioner guards and their families who accompanied them.
The place is a good example of an 1850s cottage in York, which is intact.
The place has rarity value as a residence of mud brick construction in the York townsite.
The residence is of mud brick construction with surrounding verandahs. The place has a CGI hipped roof, break pitch over the verandahs. There is a pavilion extension on the northwest side of the building which is connected by means of the verandah. Although this structure is of similar form and materials, it dates from the 1970s.
The Avon River valley was first explored by Ensign Robert Dale in July 1830. The district was declared open for settlement on 12 November 1830. 13 days later, notice was given that ‘a town to be called York will be laid out in a situation near Mount Blackwell’. The area initially developed as an agricultural district and by 1836, the nucleus of the township was in place. Subsequent to the transportation of the first convicts to the Swan River Colony in 1851, a convict depot was established in York to facilitate the completion of public works in the area. With the convicts came the Pensioner Guards; all of whom were granted land as part of their service. This place is said to have been constructed for a Pensioner Guard in c. 1859 by builder E. Ashworth.
