Oddfellows' Hall, Forrest Road

The Oddfellows was a friendly society and this hall was built for their own use in 1872.    

The statue at the top is of a women with a child in her arms representing Charity.  The three figures below are Faith, Hope and Charity. Immediately above the door is a coat of arms flanked by seated horses.   

The Oddfellows sold the hall in 1953.

John C.Hay, the architect, also designed the tenements on either side.
