CLARK RESERVE

A reserve on the corner of Oakville Road and Hacknel Road, Oakville. The reserve was donated by Charles Henry Clark in 1927.

Reference: Oakville Hall

The land was donated by Charles Clark as the site for a community hall. The cost of the building was £120 which was made up of £20 from the Oakville Progress Association and ten donations of £10 each from ten residents. The hall was used for dances, church services, meetings, weddings and other social functions as well as an additional schoolroom space while awaiting the construction of new school buildings at the school across the road. The hall fell into disrepair and was demolished in the 1970s to become a Council park.
