Comments
This former St James Presbyterian Church building is now privately owned. It was built in 1861. One of church's ministers, the Rev James Adam was held up by the bushranger, Ben Hall, but allowed to pass due to his politeness.
No other details are known about the former church. More historical information/photographs of the former church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 25/8/2017 & 31/7/2021.
