Comments

The former Tiparra West Uniting Church has closed, and the proprerty has been sold (1916?). The church had been part of the Uniting Church Synod of South Australia. The church building was opened on the 20/4/1924 by the Rev C E Tapp, as the Tiparra West Memorial Congregational Church, which became part of the Uniting Church in 1977. No other details are known. More historical information/photographs of the former church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 14/3/2025.
