The former Kogarah Presbyterian Church building is now privately owned. (see Kirkplace Presbyterian Church entry)
The first Kogarah Presbyterian Church building was erected about 1890. It became the church hall when the new church building was opened on 16/6/1928. It was officially opened by His Excellency the Governor General, Lord Stonehaven and dedicated by the Moderator General, the Rev R Scott-West.
More historical information/photographs of the former church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 4/10/2020.
