Old Kerosene Store, 19th-century industrial building in Fremantle, Australia.
The limestone structure stands near Bathers Beach, featuring stone rubble walls, a hip roof, and timber flooring designed for storing dangerous goods.
The State Government constructed this dangerous goods store in 1884 for £585, selecting a location away from other buildings yet close to Long Jetty.
From 1975, potter Joan Campbell transformed the former storage facility into a ceramics studio, establishing its role as an arts center.
The building underwent extensive renovations in 2011, including reroofing and structural improvements to maintain its functionality as a cultural space.
The facility changed from storing kerosene to serving as a shipwright shed, pottery studio, and art gallery over different periods.
