Comments

The former Gunnedah Methodist Church property is now part of the adjoining Gunnedah Uniting Church (see separate entry - 2380). The first recorded Methodist services in the district were conducted in 1866, firstly on private properties, and from 1873 to the opening of this church building, in the Court House. The church was closed in 1957 when the present Uniting church building was opened. More historical information/photographs of the church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 31/5/2021.
