Venue Comments

This venue operated at Tunstall, later renamed Nunawading.

"It was quite a small hall and one assumes could not have seated much more than a hundred or so people. One has to remember that Tunstall was, even in the 1920s, a busy area because of the large complex of potteries and brickworks that were operating along the railway just east of the station." (Seccombe, p. 7)
