Statement of Significance
The Yelbeni Hall has considerable historic and social significance for its association with the recreational and social needs and activities of the local community. The building is representative of many country halls given its simple form and use of inexpensive construction materials. Although it is not located on the main street, the Hall is a dominant feature of the town.
Physical Description
The Yelbeni Hall is a rectangular timber framed building clad with horizontal corrugated iron. The place has a corrugated iron gable roof, with a vent to the eastern gable end. There is a shallow pitched lean-to roof to the rear behind which are two timber framed corrugated iron clad ablutions. The windows to the hall are timber framed and double hung and feature awnings. There is a corbelled brick chimney to the rear lean-to.
History
The Yelbeni Hall was built in 1913 by the local community. Over the years it has been used for dances, social events, meetings and sporting activities. It was modified in the 1950s. To date is currently used as a General store.
