Description

St George's Hall, located at 65 Baltic Street in Montrose, is a recreational building constructed in 1885. It features a two-storey asymmetrical design and is situated on a corner site. The exterior is made of sandstone ashlar, with a stugged finish on one side and squared and snecked stone on the other. The building has a cornice above the ground floor on the entrance front, a band course above the ground floor on the east and west elevations, and an eaves band course.

On the southeast elevation, the entrance front is three-sided with a painted ground floor. The central bay has a doorway flanked by tall windows, which are currently boarded. The first floor is blank, with pilaster corners and an architraved panel in the centre that features a granite insert inscribed "St George's Free Church Hall 1885." This bay is topped with a broken pediment, a console, and a glazed oculus above, with a decorative pilaster rising vertically, a shaped wallhead gable, and a stone urn finial. The bay to the right has a large boarded window at the ground floor and an architraved window with a raised cill on the first floor. The bay to the left also has a large window at the ground floor and an architraved window on the first floor.

The west elevation consists of three bays on the first floor, with dressed margins and windows featuring raised cills. The right bay has a boarded window at the ground floor and a boarded doorway to the left. The centre bay contains paired windows at the ground floor, while the left bay features an architraved doorpiece with a consoled cornice at the ground floor, a six-panel door, and upper panels that are glazed.

The east elevation has three bays on the ground floor and a single bay on the first floor, with a blocked doorway to the left at ground level. The centre bay has a window above at the first floor, and the right bay is set back under a catslide roof.

The north elevation adjoins 63 Baltic Street.

The interior was not seen in 1998. The building features four-pane timber sash and case windows on the east at ground level, plate glass on the west at ground level, and two and three-pane windows on the first floor with leaded lights and coloured glass, two of which have louvres in the upper lights. The roof is covered with grey slate and has a piended design. There is a tall, shouldered ashlar stack on the east side, a mutual brick stack, and a ridge terminated to the south by an octagonal timber ventilator that is louvred and corniced. The building also has corniced guttering and cast-iron rainwater goods.
