Description

The Muzzleloaders Association Hut in Bisley is a rifle clubhouse built in 1891 by the Wire Wove Company. It features a timber frame clad in pre-fabricated panels and has a hipped roof made of corrugated iron. The building is single-storey with a single-depth plan and consists of a seven-window range.

The exterior includes barge boards at the gabled north end and a canted verandah that wraps around three sides of the hut. The verandah has 13 bays on the west side, 5 bays on the south, and 11 bays on the east, extending three bays beyond the south gable. It is supported by turned posts with elliptical, arched braces and cast-iron bracketed feet on brick plinths. Each side features a central bay leading to double half-glazed doors, with plate-glass windows on either side. The west side has a half-glazed door located two bays from the end, and the south gable includes a canted mid-20th century bay window.

Inside, the hut consists of a single-ceilinged room with kitchens located at the north end. Historically, it was used to display trophies during the Queen's Competition and is notable as a rare complete example of the type of temporary or prefabricated hut used by the army in the colonies during the late 19th century.
