Comments

The former St Brigid's Catholic Church, Gowrie is now closed, and the property was sold in 1998. It was part of the Diocese of Armidale. The present church building was opened about 1929, replacing an earlier building opened about 1890, but destroyed in a storm on 2/10/1928. Although land for the first building was acquired in 1878, and the first building was not opened until 1890, Mass was celebrated in private homes from the 1870s. More historical information/photographs of the former church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 20/1/2023.
