North Fremantle is a small suburb of Perth, Western Australia, located within the City of Fremantle. Its postcode is 6159.
The suburb is situated on the Swan River, north of the Port of Fremantle. The suburb stretches from the old Fremantle Traffic Bridge, north to McCabe Street and is bordered by the Swan River and the Indian Ocean.
The northern part of the suburb was once home to the Leighton Marshalling Yards run by the former Western Australian Government Railways which changed to Westrail. The area is planned for redevelopment by the State Government into a coastal urban village and recreational area, known as North Port Quay. This may see the re-opening of the now-demolished Leighton train station. North Fremantle is also home to the famous night bar called Mojos [1], Railway Hotel and Tonic Cafe.
