[QUOTE="just starting, post: 492023, member: 14279"] I spoke to one of the old timers today about the civic hall site and he remembers it as a kid ( around the mid 1930`s to early 1940`s ) being the Haymarket stock and stock feed centre. The current Haymarket is across the road ,but this was a big deal ,apparently. He is not sure of the timelines ,but,the Alfred hall must have been on the site at the same time ,by the sounds of it. This bloke is getting on ,so i was really stretching his memory. He does remember dozens of pubs around that area , but isn`t sure if any were on that block. Hopefully i will run into another 3 blokes ,2 of which have family business history in the centre of town and the other has done extensive research on ballarat. FOZ [/QUOTE]
