I have the following request, anyone any ideas?

"Do you have the name of a building on or near Tollemache Rd close to St James hospital which was used as a Community Hall in the 50s and 60s (and maybe earlier). It was made of metal and had a corrugated tin roof I think"

In Perrin Hall, a cooked meal was provided for 1/-(5p)during the early 1940's. A special free bus was provided to take Victory Kidder employees to Perrin Hall form Laird St Depot at 12pm and return in time to complete their shift. It was also used in the evening as a dance hall.
