History

Popanyinning on 24 November 1905.1
Unfortunately, the Public Works Department file concerning the Hall has been badly damaged by white ants.
However, some of the later correspondence was readable, with a letter on p.146 stating that the Hall had been constructed in 1907, and that its erection had been subsidised by the Government by £280.
