The first, shown here, was a temporary meeting place at a home in High Street. The second was immediately north of the current Town Hall Hotel in Waratah. [see Ed Tonks book No Bar to Time, 2015] Later, in the 1930s I believe, a new building was erected in Hanbury Street, on the site as the present RSL "Diggers" Club. It had 4 large columns in front.
