Grazia Cottages was renamed after Grazia de Beer (née Pugliese), the Milan-born wife of a former Port Nolloth resident, who arrived here in 1982. She was instrumental in establishing the local museum (now sadly closed) and promoting appreciation for the towns heritage. Its believed that the cottages were built circa 1950 in a style reminiscent of the 1880s or earlier, using corrugated sheet metal and wood panelling, echoing other historic buildings nearby. The Port Nolloth beachfront has also been renamed in Grazias honour.
