Comments

This former St Andrew's Presbyterian Church property is now privately owned. It was the first Presbyterian Church established in the region. Regular services had commenced in Boyd's Bridge Hotel in 1859. A decision to build a wooden church was made in 1860, but subscriptions were so generous a stone church was erected instead and opened on 16/3/1862. No other details are known about the former church. More historical information/photographs of the former church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 19/1/2018.
