These two buildings on Errol Street North Melbourne were donated by its then owner in the early 1920s to the Baptist church for use as a school. The Baptists occupied it for around 40 years and during that time they did not spend a penny to maintain the buildings, instead they let it to fall into disrepair. In 1966 the building were demolished, and the vacant land was redevelopmed. Today that address on the corner of Errol and Flemington Road is known as the Mercure North Melbourne Motel.
