The Proston Memorial Club Rooms were erected to commemorate those who have served in the various conflicts in which Australia has been involved.

The club rooms were opened on the 26th March 1954 by Sir Raymond Huish, President of the RSL.

A public meeting in Proston decided hand over the funds of the Proston District Memorial Club Rooms Committee to the Proston R.S.L. Sub-branch, to be placed to the credit of the R.S.L. Memorial Club Rooms account. R.S.L. members have been concerned at the lack of interest shown, and desired to organise the raising of money. They now will be able to do so. A site in Collingwood Street Proston, has been donated by Mr. Andrew Ley in memory of his two sons, who made the supreme sacrifice in the last war.
