Spencer Street Drill Hall - Veterans Description for Public
A timber drill hall was located on Spencer Street, Melbourne but has since been demolished. Between 1884-1901, militia orderly rooms were built by the Victorian Public Works Department and were universally of timber and of similar design. The seminal examples of this era are Ballarat, Bendigo, Castlemaine, Portland and St Kilda which are all to the design of the PWD architect Samuel Bindley. Of the twenty-eight examples of this type built, only eight remain.
