“The Rev. J. C. Kirby said that sixteen years ago a number of Congregationalists came to reside at the Semaphore, and it vas found necessary to establish a Sunday school, and the Rechabite Hall was selected for the purpose. . . It was now felt necessary that they should have a building of their own, so that other forms of Christian work might be carried on.” [Register 15 May 1899]
“a young men's hall in connection with the Semaphore Congregational Church . . . The new structure will adjoin the Jagoe Street Hall (where the church services are held) on the north side. Mr. J. H. Cranna is the architect, and Mr. W. F. Klopp the contractor. The money for the building of the hall is being raised by the Young Men's Society, and it is hoped that- sufficient funds may be forthcoming to equip the building for a clubroom, that it may become a social meeting place for men.” [Daily Herald 13 May 1913]
