1833, Cons3868_Item_109
Part of Fremantle showing some additional Allotments shaded blue
Which are submitted by the
Surveyor General, [John Septimus Roe]
For the approval of the Lieutenant Governor.
March 20. 1833.
The SRO has William Kernot Shenton at the end of their title. His name appears on the right-hand bottom corner after "Copied by".
REMARKS. Lots 433 and 448 [in Market Street, coloured reddish] to be reserve of the Crown, being the site of the original Burial Ground.
The Green [along the river bank] shews the additions made by Governor Stirling to the allotments, 13th Sept 1834.
The Lots marked S to be considered special Lots.
The plan is signed (but not dated) 'Approved F.C. Irwin Lt Governor'. He was acting 1832-33 while Stirling was in England.
A street called King Street is shown to the eastern end of the town. It was never built and that land became part of the Barracks Square. Henderson Street is not shown, as I believe it was not laid out until the arrival of E.Y.W. Henderson in 1850.
Stirling Street was planned to cross Ellen Street (named for his wife) and continue towards the river to almost join up with James Street (at the then un-named Quarry Street) but was not made, because that land was vested in the town in 1873 and granted to the people as Fremantle Park in 1879.
