Statement of Significance
The Nannup Town Hall and Supper Room are important to the development of the town of Nannup and to the region. They are good examples of timber framed public buildings typical of the timber towns of the south west.
Physical Description
The Town Hall and Supper Room consists of two linked timber framed and weatherboard structures with simple gabled roofs, exposed eaves, projecting gabled entry to the Hall, and timber framed sash windows. The Hall is a double volume structure with a small skillion formed addition located along the southern façade, and a larger, more recent toilet block abutting the eastern portion of the north façade.
History
Nannup Town Hall was constructed in 1903 and has been used for a variety of purposes including the first schoolhouse in the town, for church services and for showing films. The supper room adjacent was constructed in 1937. The buildings were both constructed of jarrah weatherboards with iron roofs and were restored and reopened by the Town Hall Preservation Society in 1988.
