Comments
The Dover Community Church is affiliated with the Churches of Christ in Victoria and Tasmania. The Dover Congregational Church opened in 1877, but the building had been used by a nondenominational church from about 1866. It is not clear when it became a Churches of Christ congregation/church. A cemetery adjoins the church. More historical information/photographs of the church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 19/5/2023.
