Comments

The former St John's Anglican Church, Toolamba was part of the Parish of Toolamba and the Diocese of Bendigo. Early Anglican services were held in 1876 in Knights Hotel, then Page's Farm and the Toolamba School, until the present church building, erected on land donated by George Pogue, was opened in 1913. The final service and deconsecration of the church building was held on 15/12/2013. The property was sold in February 2014. No other details are known. More historical information/photographs of the former church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 19/5/2022.
