Cooya Pooya Homestead

Point of Interest

Description

Cooya Pooya Station is historically significant for its associations with the development of the pastoral industry in the Pilbara district. It has research potential as it demonstrates the evolution of a pastoral settlement since 1882. The place has close associations with the Lockyer and Stove families, early pastoralists in the Pilbara who were prominent in the development of the North-West pastoral industry. The place also has associations with the Aboriginal people who worked and lived on the property. The buildings in the Cooya Pooya Station Homestead group date from the early 1880s. The present house was built in 1912. The main buildings are of stone with corrugated galvanised iron roofs.
