New Citadel
After being in use for 77 years the Salvation Army Citadel in Gladstone Road is coming down and being replaced with a modern new building. The old brick building has undergone several changes over the years, including the removal of the battlements after the 1931 earthquake. Large crowds attended the final services held in the Citadel earlier this month.
