St Luke's Anglican Church - Former

The former St Luke's Anglican Church, Westonia, property is now privately owned. The church building was erected in 1916, by Joseph Budge, a missionary from the Navy Mission Society. It was located at Naretha, a camp on the Trans-Australian Railway. In March 1918, when the railway was done, the building was dismantled and sent by rail to Kalgoorlie. It was eventually re-assembled in Westonia in October 1918. It was blessed by Rev A R Edington on 22nd October 1918. In 1930 the church building was in disrepair and was renovated and rededicated in July 1930. More historical information/photographs of the church/congregation are invited.
