1996

Overview

Black and white photograph of a house at 129 Coghlan Road, Subiaco, commissioned by the Museum in 1996.
Landscape image showing the front of the two storey house with iron lace (Metters' Pattern No.146) on upper and lower sections, with an iron balustrade on the second storey. Shade from large trees on right hand side of photo slightly obscures vision of lower storey.

Historical information

Information added later by Christobel Bennett: The original plans dated September 1908 for the proposed residence for Mrs Ball at 129 Coghlan Road, Subiaco [see acc.no.96.39] do not show the iron lace on the balconies, but a simple wooden balustrade. Metters Foundry did not operate from the Subiaco factory until 1911, but were in business at West Perth before that date. The iron lace on this residence may have come from one of Metters' eastern states foundries.
