Comments
The former St Andrew's Presbyterian Church, Deloraine has closed, and the property is now privately owned. The first Presbyterian service in Deloraine, was conducted by the Rev R K Ewing on 12/11/1854. Until the first church building was erected in 1855, services were held in Mr Humphrey's schoolhouse. The present building was opened on 11/11/1885, having been erected beside the original church building, which had been used until 1883. The old church site was eventually used to build a manse in 1899. More historical information/photographs of the former church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 24/02/2015.
