Comments

The St Andrew's Presbyterian Church, Smithton closed in 1916, and the church property was sold two years later. The earliest Presbyterian services in Smithton were held about 1905, and held in various locations. The church building was opened on 17/1/1907, but after a few years services ceased and the church building was used by the Methodist Church from about 1910 to 1912, when Presbyterian services resumed. More historical information/photographs of the former church/congregation are invited. Photograph uploaded 19/4/2023.
