[1] "Brundah", an Italianate style house, was built on the site in the mid-1880s for a wine merchant, Thomas Alt.

In 1927, the foundation stone for a new building was laid by the Sir Dudley de Chair.

[citation needed] The new Leigh College was opened in 1928 to a design by Byera Hadley.

[3] The Memorial Chapel and Leigh Hall are listed on the Royal Australian Institute of Architects (NSW Chapter) Register of Twentieth Century Buildings of Significance and with Brundah are classified by the National Trust of Australia (NSW).

The College site, including front and rear grounds, is also contained in the National Trust's "Strathfield Urban Conservation Area Precinct 3".
