Historical information

The photograph is signed 'Webb & Webb', a photographic firm that operated from Fremantle and Perth in Western Australia from 1890 to 1900. A researcher has confirmed that this is Fremantle in Western Australia, "showing the main street which is simply known as High Street. The Long Jetty was built in 1873. The building on the corner on the left is what was known as Higham's building and it is still there today (2013). The building on the right hand corner is the National Hotel which still stands today after having gone through a number of transformations."
