c1911 postcard view of horse-drawn wagons and customers posing in front of the Behlmer Brothers store in Batesville, Indiana. This concrete block building still stands on the west corner at George and Sycamore streets. The 1892, 1899 and 1909 Sanborn™ fire insurance map sets for Batesville all show this corner vacant and show that Shelby Street was known as Greeman Street back then. One Batesville history source¹ says the building was constructed in 1911.

North Choir Aisle - Rose Window, c1911.

 

Designed by John William Brown (1842-1928).

 

Made by James Powell & Sons, Whitefriars.

 

The images in the rose window relate to "journeys across the sea and undertaken in faith", namely Moses crossing the Red Sea, Saint Paul's journey to Rome, Saint Columba planting a cross on Iona, and missionaries of the Melanesian Mission landing on the Solomon Islands.

 

John William Brown was born in Newcastle upon Tyne and trained as an artist under William Bell Scott, a friend of William Morris. He was employed by Morris & Co and later by James Powell & Sons before he became a freelance designer. He continued to undertake commissions for Powell's up to 1923, but in the later part of his career most of his work was carried out for Henry Holiday.

 

James Powell & Sons, situated on the site of the former Whitefriars monastery, between the Thames and Fleet Street, was producing mainly flint glass when it was bought in 1834 by James Powell, a London wine merchant. On his death the firm passed to his three sons Arthur, Nathaniel and James Cotton Powell, who in 1844 established a stained glass department. The latter benefitted from the scientific researches of Charles Winston, a lawyer by profession, who had dedicated himself to the study of medieval stained glass. It had made him aware of the shortcomings of the glass available to contemporary artists, this being often thin and garish in colour. In 1847 he encouraged experiments aimed at rediscovering the chemical components of medieval glass and persuaded the firm of James Powell & Sons to produce 'antique' glass to his recipes. It was mainly due to this collaboration that the firm was to become one of the most important studios and glass manufacturers of the Victorian period.

York Town Hall built 1911: foundation stone laid by Mayoress Mrs E H Neville 31 May 1911: opened 30 November 1911 by Premier John Scaddan.

Classified by the National Trust of Australia.

Permanently on the Register of the National Estate.

Permanently on the State Register of Heritage Place, Western Australia.

 

Hall lobby has a sweeping staircase constructed by local craftsmen from jarrah timber salvaged from the Mechanics Institute building which was demolished to make way for the town hall.

 

During construction the last of six large steel principals in the main section of the hall still had to be secured firmly but lunchtime occurred and workmen took lunch. During lunch a willy-willy brought down the unsecured principal and with it, the other five. They all had to be completely replaced.

 

The building was a picture show venue early in its history.

The clock was installed in 1952 and the building extended up Joaquina Street in 1997, completing the architects’ original vision.

Stage renovated in 2019.

Hall refurbished and renovated in the 2000s.

 

Designed in the Federation Free Classical style the townhall boasted the largest floor area of any such building in Western Australia.

Architects: Wright, Powell and Cameron (headed by James William Wright).
