Former Star Hotel c.1866

Two storey rendered brick building (not on a corner) with timber balcony over footpath and posts to street.

 

The pub is located near the entrance to Mort's Dock and in 1902, the Ship Painters and Dockers Union took up a 'moveable office' at 95 Mort Street, next to the Star Hotel and undoubtedly supplied trade to the establishment.

 

The license and name were transferred in 1930 to the pub now known as The Cat and Fiddle Hotel on Darling Street. The building became a residential and commercial unit in 1994.
