Description

DescriptionThis Sunday School building was designed by Ipswich architect Henry Wyman and built by JFB Bradfield in 1901. It was designed as a school and hall and became a hub of social activity among the neighbouring Methodist community. Such was the population growth in the area that in 1923 tenders were called for alterations and additions to the building.

The first superintendent of the West End Sunday School, James Dalton, and his wife Annie (nee Pettigrew) used this postcard to send New Year’s greetings to their friends and fellow parishioners John (“JJ”) and Eliza Broughton (Henry Wyman’s youngest sister), who lived at “Rosemont” 19 Burnett Street.

Dalton and Broughton were 2 of the 5 trustees of the West End Sunday School when it began, and they were active members of the Central Methodist Church in Ipswich over many decades. They also both owned businesses In Nicholas Street and were members of the Ipswich Bowls Club. Their children, extended families and many of their neighbours attended this Sunday school and two Broughton daughters, Eliza May and Lillian Maud, taught here.Additional Information The building is located at 29 Burnett Street, Sadliers Crossing.References (online)Tenders called for alterations and additions to the buildingAnniversary of establishment of the Sunday school hallOpening ceremony
