Old Registry Building

Building Information

Date of construction1902/1903Description

This building formed part of the original Tiritea House.

Between September 1928 and January 1929 the house divided into two and the two parts moved back some distance to make room for Massey Agricultural College's main building. The larger part of the house became the Principal's residence (retaining the name Tiritea House) and the smaller part the College's Registry Building (later known as the Old Registry Building), which housed the Registrar and other administrative staff.

The Old Registry Building has served as the office space of various sections of the institution throughout its history and its annex, in recent years, as the Alumni Shop.
