Comments

The Weddrburn Uniting Church is part of the Presbytery of Loddon Mallee and the Uniting Church Synod of Victoria & Tasmania. The present church building was erected about 1866 for the Methodist Church. A number of other churches congregations have joined with Wedderburn over the years, including Kuracca and Richmond Plains congregations. The former Richmond Plains Presbyterian Church building has been relocated to the present site, and is now used as the church hall. More historical information/photographs of the church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 14/2/2023.
