Australian Manchester Unity Hall

Hidden along the main shopping strip of Eaglehawk, the Australian Manchester Unity Hall has its origins as a meeting place of the Manchester Unity Independent Order of Oddfellows (MUIOOF). A large space, with tall windows at the rear and decorative memorabilia, the Manchester Unity Hall still serves the Eaglehawk community as a meeting space today.
