Heritage & Conservation

The area is primarily characterised by post-war housing stock rather than significant heritage overlay or conservation area designation. Local heritage interest centres on early twentieth-century infrastructure such as the railway station, but the suburb lacks the concentration of heritage items typical of inner-city Perth.
