context_page_description: The Adelec Buildings located at 28-36 High Street, on the corner of Henry Street in Fremantle, Western Australia. The heritage listed buildings were constructed in 1906 during the gold boom period by the trustees of Captain Edward Henry Fothergills estate.
  For many years 32 High Street was known as Fothergill's Building. The buildings were designed by the architect F.W.Burwell and constructed by J McCracken.
  It is a two-storey rendered and iron commercial corner building constructed in the Federation Free Classical style of architecture. It was constructed with a bluestone base and brick walls and covered a total area of 90 feet by 65 ft. The rendered walls have an ashlar effect with pilasters incorporating decorative capitols. The first floor has decorative pilasters with stucco arches and a keystone above the semi circular fanlight with two matching timber casement windows located below. There is a corrugated iron hipped roof behind the parapet with the words Adelec Building inscribed on the corner.
  There have been many tenants, including The Sunday Times and The Daily News. The Daily News moved their Fremantle offices into the building from further down High Street in 1908.
