Background

Lee Hops Cottage is located at 176 Fitzgerald Street, Perth which is within Robertson Park.

The cottage is on the western side of the park, facing Fitzgerald Street and was built in the 1900s as a dwelling. The cottage has been conserved as part of the Lee Hops Cottage conservation plan and is heritage listed.

The property was previously tenanted to a not for profit agency as an office/counselling centre. Future use would be on a similar basis, aimed at meeting community needs.

The cottage is not part of the Robertson Park Development Plan(External link), works for which will commence this year and be staged over the next four years. This upgrade includes a tennis precinct redevelopment, new public open space area, playground upgrade, new public toilet, and improvements to both the dog exercise area and community lighting. Regular updates on works at the park are available here(External link).
