Description
<p>The College Hostel, later known as Old Hostel, opened in 1930 or 1931, was the first purpose-built student residence at Massey Agricultural College. The building was a conglomeration of some of the outbuildings of the Batchelar homestead and new, matching additions.</p> <p>In the early 1930s, the College was able to provide accommodation to a total of seventy five male students in Old Hostel and the Batchelar homestead.</p> <p>Part of the building was removed to make way for the Business Studies Central building that was erected in 1988. The remaining part of Old Hostel was removed in 2009.</p>
