Comments

The former Benjeroop Baptist Church, after serving the community for nearly one hundred years closed about 1983. Land for the church bulding was purchased about 1876, and the church building was opened in 1885. This was the only church built in Benjeroop.  After the church closed the building became a private residence. On 8/5/2022 the home was sadly destroyed in a fire [See Daryl Davey on facebook (https://www.facebook.com/photo?fbid=10162063547563452&set=a.10150212951368452) for more history on the church]. More historical information/photographs of the former  church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 6/1/2023.
