Historical information

John McLeod Pavilion located on John Mcleod Reserve was the former club rooms of the Deer Park Football and Cricket Clubs.

For many years these rooms were used by the clubs as change rooms for training, competition, and social functions. The rooms were also available for the general public to hire out for functions such as birthdays, engagements, etc.

Due the condition of the building, the City of Brimbank made a decision late in 2025 to demolish the building in February 2026.

The planning permit contains structural condition reports, building photographs, the land title and a building site plan.

Significance

The John McLeod Pavilion was built by I.C.I. and provides a direct connection between a worldwide company providing recreation assets for its employees and the local community.
