3442 c1950 General notes.

The rifle club located the Butt Hut about 60m west and 50m north of the 500 yard butt. A serving hatch for food was fitted into one end, a wood fired copper was installed close by for the supply of hot water, along with a long drop toilet. The butt hut added greatly to the social side of the club which held many events with men and women from as far away as West Taeri taking part. Hot savoys, sandwiches and cups of tea were supplied as refreshments.

3443 c1978 The rifle club was wound up.

About this time the Cromwell - Bannockburn Defence Rifle Club was wound up. The Butt Hut was offered to Mr Bill Murray's son Ron, who purchased it from the club.
