Comments

This former church property is now privately owned. 3 Services were held on opening day. Rev William Henderson conducting the morning and evening services and Rev Joseph Dare in the afternoon. The church was closed by the Uniting Church, shortly after union in June 1977, as the building was classed as redundant and eventually sold in 1988. The building still contains a rare Ferguson & Urie stained glass window.

No other details are known about the former church. More historical information/photographs of the former church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 30/10/2014.
