History

Hale Street was originally Healy Road. The name changed to Hale in 1956 /57 possibly to avoid confusion with Healy Road in Hamilton Hill. It is also possible the street was named in honour of two Fremantle brothers and leading athletes, Edgar and Vernon Hale. Edgar was killed in WWI, while Vernon died as a result of wounds received during WWI, on his return to Fremantle.

Statement of Significance

James Moore Pioneer Park (1934) has historic significance as a former tip site, redeveloped during the 1930s with the assistance of labourers employed under the sustenance scheme, when unemployed men were offered work on landscape projects. Fremantle council donated 22 trees for planting, dedicated to the memory of pioneers in Western Australia. The park has social significance for the nearby Beaconsfield Primary School, as evidenced by the formation of a landscape punctuated with memorial trees planted by students at various times on Arbour Day. James Moore Pioneer Park has aesthetic value for its contribution to the surrounding area.

Physical Description

Open grassed area bounded by a limestone retaining wall at the rear and metal cyclone mesh fence and trees, including Norfolk Pines.

History

Hampton Road was originally called Prison Road. It derives its name from John Stephen Hampton (1810-1869), the Governor of WA from 1862-68. He was previously Comptroller of Convicts in Tasmania. His son, G. E. Hampton, was Acting Comptroller-General of the Fremantle Convict Establishment. James Moore Pioneer Park was developed during the 1930s with the assistance of labourers employed under the sustenance scheme. It is thus evidence of a period of time when unemployed men were offered work on landscape projects. Its proximity to Beaconsfield Primary School is evidence of the formation of a landscape punctuated with memorial trees planted by students at various times on Arbour Day. The Park is located on a former 'tip' site. It was excavated, levelled and grassed in 1934. It was known as 'The Field'. On 14 September 1934, 22 trees were planted in the park. These trees were donated by Fremantle council and dedicated to the memory of pioneers in Western Australia. The place was included in the "Heritage Study South Fremantle", prepared by John Taylor Architects, for the City of Fremantle, June 1993.

There is a parapet with engaged pilasters which extend through the height of the building to above a decorative and bracketed entablature. The main window next to the truncated entrance facing Hampton Road although in poor condition appears to be original with engaged decorative timber columns.

The verandah has also been altered and is now supported by rendered pillars over a masonry balustrade. The timber framed double hung sash windows are extant. There is a low painted brick fence to the front boundary and a small garden area behind.

History

Note: please also refer to place listing for 69 South Street. Hampton Road was originally called Prison Road. It derives its name from John Stephen Hampton (1810-1869), the Governor of WA from 1862-68. He was previously Comptroller of Convicts in Tasmania. His son, G. E. Hampton, was Acting Comptroller-General of the Fremantle Convict Establishment. The Fremantle Rates Books show that in 1890 Lots 16, 17, 18 of CSL 7 was owned by Frederick Caesar, David Jose and Henry Albert as undeveloped lots. By 1891/92 the owners were Patrick Roachoek and Albert H. & Co. Lot 16 under the ownership of Albert H. & Co and is described as an iron butcher’s shop. In 1893/94 Hobbs, Joseph J.T owned lots 17 and 18 and Albert’s & Co Butchers at Lot 16 was owned by Wittenoom, E.H. and Stubbs, G.W & C.H. Albert H. & Co. Butchers is also listed in Wise’s Post Office Directories at this time. By the 1896 Rates books lists Mold W. A. who was a draper as the owner and occupier of Lots 17 & 18 and Albert & Co. Butchers at Lot 16. It is likely that the shop building on Hampton Road was constructed at this time. The iron butchers was most likely a temporary structure. Henry Albert as the owner of Albert & Co advertised as family butchers and had business in Perth, Fremantle (45 High Street) and the Hampton Road Beaconsfield shop. Henry Albert (senior) (1819-1892) was an expiree who arrived in Fremantle in 1850 on the Hashemy. He had several businesses and owned five town lots in 1865. His son Henry William Albert married Sarah Preston Cook in 1878. They had three surviving children when he died in 1889. Sarah died in 1951.Sarah Albert (nee Cook, 1858-1951) hoisted the flag at the Foundation Day Ceremony on the Esplanade in 1950. (refer to Local History Collection for images). In 1894 William Arthur Mold married Catherine Amy Vincent and they had four children between 1895 and 1901. William died in 1915 and Catherine in 1942. William was a Brother of the Ancient Order of Foresters. By 1900 occupants included with the Mold shops and drapery was Joseph Zuracka a Bootmaker. In 1902 William Colwell (joiner). By 1906/07 Ida Fabricius (nee Sorenson 1873 – 1968) married Jacob Fabricius in 1896 and is listed as an owner to the shed at Lot 16. An advertisement in The West Australian in 1909 advertised the place for auction and described the property as comprises “a shop and a five-roomed villa residence” owned by Mr. W. A. Mold who as he had left the district had no use for the place. It stated that the shop facing Hampton Road had two entrances and that the inside measurements being about 50ft. by it- 22ft. The residence is described as a… “splendidly-built stone and brick residence”. This building is well finished in. and in perfect order, and contains 2 rooms, each 181t. x 16ft., one 16ft. x 13ft., one 12fL z 12ft., hall 21ft. x 6ft., kitchen 12ft. x 12ft., bathroom, etc. There is a verandah on two sides”. Following Jacob’s death in 1909, Ida retained ownership of the lot until it was transferred to George Ing in 1919/1920. The address of Lot 16 was then known as 159 South Street and Lots 17 and 18 were known as 194 Hampton Road. It appears that the shed was probably demolished by 1913 when it is crossed out and listed as a vacant lot. In 1918 the Daily News reported that a gale that raged through Fremantle caused the side verandah and fence at Messrs. Baker Bros.’ butcher’s shop, at the corner of Hampton Road and South Street were blown away and the verandah of two shops next door blown down. As well as Laura and George Ing owners included Henry Johnson and James Kirk until 1923/34 when Henry D. San Miguel appears as the owner of the residence at Lot 17 and the shop at Lot 18. By the mid-1930s the residence was known as 63 South Street and the shops 112/114 Hampton Road. One of the shops appears to have remained a butchers’ shop for some years. According to an article in the Sunday Times, Joseph and his twin Levi Baker had worked at an early age for Albert and Co in Fremantle. When asked how he first started his chain of butcher shops he stated, “ Albert and Co. sold out to a Mr, Stubbs, for whom I opened the first butcher's shop in Beaconsfield. Two years later I started out on my own account at the corner of Hampton Road and South-street, Beaconsfield. This was really the beginning of our business, as it is to-day. four years later I closed this shop.” (Sunday Times 12 June 1927, page 8) Lots 16, 17 and 18 remained in the San Miguel family until at least 1950 until the last date of the Rates books was researched and Wise’s Post Office Directories ceased publication (further research could be undertaken in the rates books). Henry Joseph de San Miguel was born 1881 to Angel and Mary de San Miguel (nee Green). Harriet Elizabeth Postans b. 1888 to George Alexander and Maud Mary Postans (nee Tonkin). Angel de San Miguel, was a colonist who arrived with Bishop Salvado in Western Australia by the ship Robert Morrison in 1848, and was with the Benedictine Community at New Norcia. Henry and Harriet married in 1905 and they had eight children. In 1977 an application by the owner Mr K. Wright to have the property rezoned was refused by the Council on the grounds that the residence was larger than the shops. The 1979 image shows the corner shop as an upholsterer’s. The entrance to the second shop can be seen on Hampton Road.

History

Hampton Road was originally called Prison Road. It derives its name from John Stephen Hampton (1810-1869), the Governor of WA from 1862-68. He was previously Comptroller of Convicts in Tasmania. His son, G. E. Hampton, was Acting Comptroller-General of the Fremantle Convict Establishment. In 1895, 170-170a Hampton Road was recorded as being undeveloped land owned by Annie Taylor. The land was purchased by the colonial government the following year and set aside for a police station. The contract for the police station complex, comprising two quarters (each of four rooms, with kitchen, bathroom, store and front and back verandahs), lockup of two cells with charge room and office, was let to J Carlson in November 1897. The work was completed in April 1898. A 1908 sewerage diagram shows the two stone police quarters with central steps leading up to each verandah, each with rear verandahs and enclosed bathrooms and water closets. The brick station (lockup) was located in the rear yard of the sergeant’s house, No. 170 (previously No. 136). The constable assigned to the station lived in No. 170a (previously No. 138). An addition was made to the rear of the police station c. 1960 to provide more office accommodation. The existing office in front of the two cells was then dedicated to be the charge room. The Beaconsfield Police Station closed on 23 April 1969 and the property was passed to the Department of Land Administration in 1991. The following year, title to the property was transferred to Homeswest. In 1993, Homeswest developed the rear of the site with new homes.
