      Wangaratta Drill Hall - Veterans Description for Public

      The Wangaratta Drill Hall is located on the corner of Rowan and Mackay Streets. The Hall dates from the period when the expansion of the armed forces from 1911 and the outbreak of the First World War resulted in a large number of drill halls being constructed by the Commonwealth up to 1918. During this period, drill halls were constructed to only two basic designs and varied only in size. Except for the naval drill halls (Port Melbourne, in brick, and Western Port HMAS Cerberus, in timber) all of the drill halls were constructed in corrugated iron
