Comments
This former Gulgong Wesleyan Methodist Chapel closed about 1878, and the property was sold. Notice board records that it dates from about 1871, the period of the gold rush. The minister at the time was the Rev J Oran who travelled from Mudgee. The manse was located next door to the church. No other details are known. More historical information/photographs of the former church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 10/9/2017 & 4/8/2024.
