| DESCRIPTION |
| Details (Known As) |
Former Peterborough YMCA (Young Men's Christian Association) Hostel |
| Registered Name |
Former YMCA Hostel |
| Significance |
The former YMCA Hostel is a prominent building in the Civic Centre of the town, and one of considerable architectural interest. Its primary significance, however, lies in its association with the YMCA and its use as a hostel. This underscores something of the nature of the town and its close association with the South Australian Railways. There is additional significance in the fact that Commissioner Webb had the railways provide the land for the hostel at the time of the railways' rejuvenation in the 1920s.
