Located at 2 Jabish Street it was built in 1923 under the provision of the will of Sarah T. D. Robinson, daughter of Myron Lawrence and wife of Charles Robinson, first  governor of Kansas.  It stands on the site of two old hotels. What was envisioned originally as a hall and two rooms for town offices soon became a possibility of hall and a new high school building combined.  In 1921, the high school and grammar school building  off  Maple Street burned, and the town was forced to start planning for  new school buildings.  After negotiations with the Trustees of the Robinson Trust, the town voted to accept the hall and its maintenance, and the  rear of the building would have a two-story addition to house the new high school. The building was dedicated in 1923. Belchertown High School remained part of Lawrence Memorial Hall until a new high school was constructed off North Washington Street in 1964. Extensive renovations were made in the 1980s, and the building now only contains  town offices.
