The Original Mt Hutt Memorial Hall

Holmes bequeath, is the name given to the two acre triangle of land which was a one time part of John Holmes ‘Viewmont’ property. It was bequeathed in 1907 for the benefit of the people of Methven and Mt Hutt Riding. Approval was obtained in 1952 to allow the Mt Hutt Memorial Hall to be built on the reserve. The hall was built in 1956 to commemorate those who fell in the Second World War.

The Mt Hutt Memorial Hall today

In April 2011 the hall was refurbished and extended to include new function rooms, theatrette, Art Gallery and Tourism Encounter. This $6 million project was largely funded by community donations and fundraising and a grant from the local Ashburton District Council.
