Comments

The former Mannanarie Methodist Church ceased holding regular services in 1966, and the property was disposed of in 1983. The present church building was opened for the Primitive Methodist Church on 25/7/1880, and replaced an earlier chapel opened on 16/8/1874. The church became part of the Methodist Church in the early 1900s. More historical information/photographs of the former church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 1/11/2024.
