Comments
The former St Paul's Anglican Church, Deans Marsh has closed, with the property listed for sale. The church building was deconsecrated in June 2024, Bishop Bradly Billings preaching the final service. No services had been held in the building since 2019. The building closed after about 139 years of service to the community, although the church is believed to have begun in the 1860s. The church building was erected on land donated by Mr Robert Bell, and opened on 27/1/1884 by the Rev W E Mantell. The church had been part of the Parish of Lorne and the Diocese of Melbourne. More historical information/photographs of the former church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 9/12/2024.
