154 King St

History

This house originally formed part of a larger building at 29 Navy Street known as the "Frontier House Hotel". The hotel, which was made from an older house built in 1838, operated from 1853-1860 at which time it was converted back to a dwelling. It was split and moved to the present site in 1906 after which the rear addition and decorative verandah were built.
