... John's' Church of England, Soldiers Hill, wlas , dedicated by the Bishop of Ballarat, Dr Maxwell-Gumbleton, at a special service held last evening. ...St John the Evangelist church and Memorial Hall, Soldier's Hill, Ballarat Photograph ...St John the Evangelist Anglican Church was erected near the place where soldiers camped prior to the events of the Eureka Stockade in 1854. A decade later, as Ballarat continued to grow north of the railway line, a new Anglican presence was needed to serve the families who had settled on Soldiers Hill. On 15 March 1864, the foundation stone for St John’s was laid. Less than a year later, on 15 February 1865, the church was opened for worship — illuminated not by electricity, but by kerosene lamps. The sanctuary and chancel were added in 1870, giving St John’s the distinctive form the parish knows today. The church was consecrated in 1874. Among the early clergy, the Rev. R. J. Mercer holds a special place. Inducted in 1875, he served until 1892 and became one of the most respected priests of the newly formed Diocese of Ballarat. In 2026 the Memorial Hall was being used as an Opportunity Shop. "ST. JOHN'S, SOLDIERS' HILL NEW MEMORIAL HALL DEDICATION SERVICE ADDRESS BY ARCHDEACON TUCKER The Memorial Parish Hall of theSt. John's' Church of England, Soldiers Hill, wlas , dedicated by the Bishop of Ballarat, Dr Maxwell-Gumbleton, at a special service held last evening. The new hall, which faces Lydiard Street, is a spacious building, built of brick, and capable of seating several hun dred people. Branching of from the interior of the hall are a number of class-rooms. Altogether, the building cost £2000, of which sum £1000 is in hand, and £1600 has been promised. There was a large congregation, in cluding many clergymen of the dis trict, and a number of returned soldiers under Major Lazarus. The Bishop conducted the service, and was assisted by the Acting Vicar (the Rev. O. O. Andersen). The lessons were 'read by the Rev. O. F. Snell and Dean Lewis. After the recitation of the Creed and prayer, the Bishop dedicated the hall 'to the glory of God for the instruction off the childien of the churchm as a home for the missionary and social activities of the parish, and in memory of the soldiers of St. John's: Church who died in the great war." Prayers were offered for the parish of St. John's, for the teachers and child ren of the Sunday school, and for those in whose memory that hall was built, as well as for the soldiers of the Em pire. Archdeacon Tucker, in the course of a dedicatory address, said that fore most in their minds thatevening was the thought that the dedication service itself expressed their thankfulness to God for that building, which was|a neces ary equipment for the work of God. ... " (Ballarat Star (Vic. : 1865 - 1924), Tuesday 14 August 1917, page 6) stood out; and attracted their attentention. The first was the readiless with which the people of the parish took up the work of building the hall. It was taken in hand swifltly as something that ought to be done, and carried through, with a quickness that showed how in stinct with life the Church of St. John's was. That noble building was not the memorial, of one man's gener ally : it was the memorial of many men's - and many women's generosity : not the large gifts of a few, but the willing gifts of many, and which were indeed large gifts for a great number of them, Colour Photographs of a red brick church and memorial hall in Armstrong St North and Lydiard St North.

... In July 1922 a deputation of returned soldiers from Panton Hill, presumably the Panton Hill branch of the Returned Sailors and Soldiers Imperial League of Australia (RSSILA), proposed to Eltham Shire Council that the monument should be a cairn of local stone “sufficiently high to form a prominent and conspicuous landmark, and crowned with some suitable device”. ...In July 1922 a deputation of returned soldiers from Panton Hill, presumably the Panton Hill branch of the Returned Sailors and Soldiers Imperial League of Australia (RSSILA), proposed to Eltham Shire Council that the monument should be a cairn of local stone “sufficiently high to form a prominent and conspicuous landmark, and crowned with some suitable device”. ...The Eltham Shire War Memorial, a tower of remembrance, was built with public donations to commemorate the memory of the fallen soldiers from the shire who enlisted in the 1914-1918 war. The tower is reminiscent of the peel-towers or watchtowers that lined the English-Scottish border from the mid 14th century to around 1600 and is constructed from locally quarried stone. This uncommon and picturesque war memorial, which affords an excellent view of the surrounding district was unveiled by His Excellency the Governor-General (Lord Stonehaven) on November 11, 1926. In July 1922 a deputation of returned soldiers from Panton Hill, presumably the Panton Hill branch of the Returned Sailors and Soldiers Imperial League of Australia (RSSILA), proposed to Eltham Shire Council that the monument should be a cairn of local stone “sufficiently high to form a prominent and conspicuous landmark, and crowned with some suitable device”. Eltham Shire Councillor and President of the Panton Hill branch of the RSSILA, Basil Hall, was credited with being the first to suggest a tower, and with organising a Memorial Park committee to raise funds for the monument in the Memorial Park. A meeting for those interested in the establishing a War Memorial monument in the park was held in January 1924 and the Eltham Shire War Memorial League was formed for this purpose. It appears that the broad and rounded cairn that had been recently built was considered by the League a temporary affair, and not the substantial cairn-as-monument, sufficiently high to form the conspicuous landmark, which had been envisaged by the Panton Hill RSSILA. A design competition was held for the monument. The chairman of the League, Councillor Basil Hall, suggested that the site of the memorial in Kangaroo Ground would lend itself to something rugged, instead of polished stone. By April 1924 thirty designs for a memorial had been received from which three designs were selected and of those, the design by the shire engineer Mr McCormack, for a 70ft tower suitable for construction in rough stone, was chosen. Artist Harold Herbert suggested that a peel tower-like design reminiscent of those along the English-Scottish border would be fitting for the site. Herbert drew up a rough sketch that was approved of, and later, Melbourne architect Percy Meldrum volunteered to draw up the design from sketch to architectural drawings. By January 1925 the Soldiers’ Memorial League had adopted Meldrum’s design for a 50ft high tower. Meldrum had also offered his design and supervision of construction free of charge. The Shire provided the stone to the builders, which was a gift quarried from land owned at Kangaroo Ground by Dr Ethel and Professor William Osborne The Shire of Eltham War Memorial, a tower of remembrance, and honour board were unveiled on November 11, 1926, by the Governor General Lord Stonehaven. At this stage a temporary honour roll was painted on the panels on either side of the tower entrance. In September 1930 bronze plates were added above the portal with the names of men who fell in the 1914-18 war. On November 16, 1951, the Governor of Victoria, Sir Dallas Brooks re-dedicated the war memorial tower and unveiled the names of men who gave their lives in the 1939-45 war. Two additional bronze plaques which recognise service in the armed conflicts of Korea, Borneo, Malaya, and Vietnam were unveiled November 11, 2001, by the Governor of Victoria, John Landy, A.C., M.B.E. The tower was first used for fire spotting activities following the Black Friday bushfire in January 1939 in response to a request from Mr R.D. Ness, secretary of the Kangaroo Ground bush fire brigade, who asked Council that the tower be used as an observation tower for detecting bush fires, and asked Council to arrange a telephone to be installed. It was suggested that if the Shire were to appoint a caretaker for the Memorial Park, his duties could also include raising the alarm in the event of a fire. Later in 1939 Council applied for a radio transmitter, which the Forestry Commission planned to install at vantage places throughout the state. The first dedicated fire spotter appointed from December1948, was Mr Smith of Warrandyte. A prefabricated glazed cabin was installed in 1974, which involved the removal of the original stone structure around the rooftop exit door. A new fire spotting cabin, which included the latest technology, was installed soon after the 2009 Black Saturday fires and is manned by CFA personnel on high fire danger days.
