Dear Monument Australia visitors, we are a self-funded, non-profit organisation, dedicated to recording monuments throughout Australia. Over time the costs of maintaining this website have risen substantially (in fact they are probably larger than those of many companies who exist for profit). In the past we have borne all the costs associated with maintaining the website but we are now having difficulties in paying the monthly expenses.
If Monument Australia is useful to you, please make a donation to keep this historical and educational resource available. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Mount Templeton Peace HallPrint Page 

The hall commemorates those who served in World War One and also commemorates the peace.
The hall was built in 1921. The land was donated by Patrick Howard and the building cost £1,000. Patrick Howard had purchased 1,048 acres from the Mount Templeton Station in 1907. Apart from social functions the Peace Hall was used for Catholic masses for 1923 to 1937. In 1954 a galvanised iron supper room was added to the rear of it. By 1977 the hall had few members and was about to close.
The hall is now private property.
