Night Shelter for Females in Watergate
House number 13 in the Watergate was once the Burns Tavern but was converted in 1902 to become the Perth Night Shelter for Females by a charitable foundation set up around 1892. The Pullar family put up funding for this night shelter which provided shelter and a simple evening meal and breakfast for destitute women. Whilst at the shelter, its residents were preached to by a reader from the City Mission. By 1918 it became a paid-for lodging house and was finally wound up in 1952.
