Fairland Pavilion
Name:
Fairland Pavilion
Location:
Centennial Park, grid ref: D4 on Centennial Parklands Map
Date built:
1933
About the building
The Fairland Pavilion, located adjacent McKay Oval in Centennial Park, was designed by architects Charles and Sid Hurst. A second storey was added in 1952 providing additional dressing rooms, balcony, showers and lavatories.
The double storey brick building with hipped tiled roof has little discernible architectural style. Although its relationship to the McKay Oval and to the backdrop of trees to the north tends to be harmonious, the crude detailing and poor state of repair result in a building of little architectural quality.
Reclamation of swamp land and development of ovals was commenced in 1925 by members of the Old Boys’ Union, guided by Robert Thomas McKay, civil engineer, and Charles Fairland. Part of the work was funded under the Unemployment Relief Council.
