Statement of Significance
When Gutha had a larger population the hall was an important social centre for the settlement. Although still occasionally used, the building faces an uncertain future.
Physical Description
Stands in a bush setting within the Gutha townsite, which once accommodated a small settlement. Rectilinear in plan, under a gable roof, the building has a rendered pediment and battraces.
There is a bronze plaque, 46cm x 31cm, on an inside brick wall, at the rear of the stage, donated by the Gutha Progress Association, with the following inscription:
This plaque commemorates the memory of Pioneers and former Residents of Gutha at the "Back to Gutha" gathering on August 26th. 1978.
