Description / Background

The St Andrew's Memorial Hall was added to the rear of the Auburn Presbyterian Church in 1960, and was opened by the Moderator, the Rt Rev C J Vernon McKeown on 13 February 1960. The church received government funding for the hall, by declaring it a war memorial. 

The dedication board is made of polished timber and features a simple pediment and a raised boarder. The lettering is painted in gold, with a drop shadow effect on the name of the hall.

The Memorial Hall may be accessed by contacting the Auburn Presbyterian Church.
