The Gatehouse was constructed by convict labour between 1854 and 1855. It was built according to the design of Royal Engineer Edmund Henderson from limestone quarried on site. Gatehouses consisting of two close towers with a gate positioned between them were a common feature of medieval castles and walled cities, especially during the reign of Edward I in England (1272-1307). Gatehouses were deliberately designed to be large and imposing structures, because their purpose was to protect the weakest point of a fortified space - the entrance. A major restoration of the Fremantle Prison Gatehouse took place in 2005 under the management of Considine and Griffiths Architects. The stonework was conserved and all non-original rendering was removed. About Fremantle Prison: Fremantle Prison was originally named The Convict Establishment, then The Colonial Convict Establishment. It was renamed Fremantle Prison in 1867. The building of the prison commenced in 1852, following a British government directive that the Swan River Colony was to be used as a penal establishment and the arrival of the first ship of convicts in June 1850. The prison was first occupied in May 1855. Control of the prison was handed over to the colonial authorities in 1886, and the gallows were added in 1888 (following the closure of the Perth Gaol in 1887). From then until capital punishment was abolished by an act of State Parliament in 1984, Fremantle Prison was the only legal place of execution in the colony and later the state. The prison was decommissioned in 1991, when the remaining male inmates and staff were transferred to the new maximum security prison at Casuarina. The Women’s Division, added to the prison in 1889, had been disbanded in 1970 when female prisoners were transferred to Bandyup Women’s Training Centre. Since its closure, Fremantle Prison has been added to the State, National and World Heritage Lists.

The Claremont Campus building was constructed in 1901 and originally housed the Claremont Teacherâ€™s College. It was then home to the Western Australian College of Advanced Education from 1981 and was a campus of Edith Cowan University before being purchased by The University of Western Australia in 2004. At the roof of the faÃ§ade and along the top of the oriel window, crenellation has been used for decorative effect. Crenellation was an architectural feature commonly employed in medieval castles and military structures. Cut into parapets, it provided both openings through which weapons could be fired (the embrasures) and raised sections of stone to protect from oncoming fire and obscure visibility (the merlons). The depressed arch around the main door and rectangular hood moulding is also characteristic of late gothic architecture of the fifteenth century.

This article from the West Australian informs readers of the competition’s outcome. It identifies Melbourne architects Rodney Alsop and Conrad Sayce as the winners, Donald H. McMorran from Harrow-on-the-Hill as the first runner-up and Gummer and Ford from Auckland as the second runner-up. The article reports that 51 designs had been considered by the panel, which was comprised of Professor Leslie Wilkinson, Professor of Architecture, Mr A. R. L. Wright, President of the Royal Institute of Architects of Western Australia and Dr Athelson Saw, the Chancellor of the University, and that they had particularly commended the general layout and the design for the great hall, the loggia and the tower in the winning design. The conditions of the competition had stipulated that the winner would be employed as the architect for the project unless the adjudicators in consultation with the Senators objected. During this discussion, Professor Ross asked what style the winning design represented. Professor Wilkinson is reported to have answered “it is in the style which our grandsons will call ‘Early Western Australian Renaissance’.”   Construction of the buildings began soon after, and Winthrop Hall was officially opened in April 1932. Alsop and Sayce began the project together, although Alsop was the senior architect and assumed responsibility for all correspondence about the project, but fell out in the process and Sayce left before the buildings were completed. One of their disagreements centred on Alsop’s replacement of the original clock tower with an Italian style campanile. For more information, see R. J.
