Proposed partial closure – portion of Henderson Street
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on LinkedinEmail this link
Consultation has concluded
We're seeking comments on a proposal to close and amalgamate a section of road reserve into 45 Henderson Street Fremantle (former Courthouse and Police Station).
The proposal includes an area both behind the limestone wall and in front of the wall (paved area), leaving a 3m x 3m truncation on the very corner.
The area behind the limestone wall currently has the appearance of being part of the 45 Henderson Street property.
The proposal will restore the original boundary line and protect the original perimeter of the 'Convict Establishment'.
