A substantial timber framed structure on timber stumped footings with weatherboard and fibre cement sheet cladding. The roof is hipped clad in corrugated metal sheeting. The additions to the main building are partially supported on brick bases all windows are set within timber architraves with metal framed windows. A wide stone chimney dominates the side elevation. Set within natural bushland.
The land on which this property is located was part of the Korijekup estate which was released for sale in 1895 as 10 acre allotments. Settlement of these lots was not rapid and in the period following World War I some of the lots were repurchased by the government for soldier settlement. This lot was acquired by the Harvey Repatriation Committee under the jurisdiction of the Shire of Harvey. It is believed that the hall was constructed at this time for the use and recreation of the returned servicemen.
This property is currently a reserve allocated for recreation and as a telecommunications site. This Shire of Harvey became responsible for the site in 1947.
The Harvey Golf Club had been using the grounds and facilities of Stanton Park from before World War II until the 1970s when the club moved to its current location.
It is currently used a function hall and the grounds are regularly used for horse shows and eventing competitions. Further research is required to establish where the name originates.
