The first Sunbury Community Health Centre was built on the corner of Horne Street and Gap Road in a temporary building. As result of further funding in 1974, a permanent building was erected and opened in 1981 and operated from that site until 2000 when it was relocated into a larger and more modern building on the former Sunbury Primary School site in Macedon Street to accommodate Sunbury's expanding population and needs.It now operates under the name of Sunbury and Cobaw Community Health Centre. The old building was demolished and replaced with a fast-food outlet.A non-digital coloured photograph of the Sunbury Community Health Centre showing the notice board displayed in the front giving phone details and parking area.sunbury community health centre, health centres, gap road, horne street
