The former Dungowan Union Church appears to have closed many years ago. Sign records: '1874 - 21 Dungowan (Upper) School ~ 1904 - Union Church,' which could indicate it was erected as a school, but it is recorded as a Union Church - 18731. It is also referred to as holding the first Methodist service in the district in 1886, prior to the building of the Duri Methodist Church2. No other details are known. More historical information/photographs of the former church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 6/2/2025.
