Comments
The original Presbyterian Church was opened in 1831 with the service shared between Rev Dr Drought and Rev James Garrett. It is believed to have been the second oldest Presbyterian Church in Australia after Ebenzer on the Hawkesbury River in NSW. The original building was used by both Presbyterian and Anglican worshippers for about 60 years. More information/photographs are invited. Photographs uploaded 23/08/216.
