Mission Hall, also known as St. Mary’s Church Hall, at nos. 39/41 Mary Place dates from the latter part of the nineteenth century. The hall is constructed from stock brick which has been painted white at a later date. The brickwork is embellished with pilasters and round moulded string courses. The roof is even pitched with a covering of natural slates with red clay ridge tiles. Y-tracery windows to the gable end of the main hall above the principal entrance are prominent architectural features and are in contrast to the simpler and modest vertical sliding sash windows on the adjacent gable at second floor level. The principal entrance door is two leafed with a mullion panelled design with strap hinges and a mullioned transom light above. A timber glazed screen and entrance door to the rounded arch to the east forms a less formal entrance to the residential and studio spaces and secondary entrances to the west comprise a vertically boarded door and decorative iron gate. A recessed panel to the front of the building has a highly detailed painting of St. George and the Dragon on a gold background which references the current name of the property. The building was converted to studio space and living accommodation in the mid 1970s.
