About Reynard Street Neighbourhood House

In 1912, the army accepted Coburg Borough Council's offer of land for a drill hall at a peppercorn rent for five hundred years.The hall was officially opened by Senator Miller, Minister for Defence, on 27 February 1914. In 1975, Councillor Murray Gavin discovered that it was illegal for Councils to lease land for longer than ten years, so, after some considerable hesitation, the army was asked to vacate. The hall was demolished in November 1987 and the newly cleared and planted land opened as Robinson Reserve, July 1988.
