Exploring the hall
As a youngster, I, with friends, was one of those who got into Ettalong Hall to explore and look for the hidden tunnel which we, obviously, didn't find.
Some years later it was occupied by the Pazcowski family, a local doctor.
When the bulldozers turned up, we all stood in front of the hall until the police turned up and removed us.
As an aside, Mulbong Rd has now been renamed Baldwin Cl and Neil Baldwin was my godfather.
I still almost cry when I think that LJ Hooker were able to convince the State Government to bulldoze such a part of the Central Coast's heritage.
