Comments
The Berry Memorial Uniting Church, Trundle, is part of the Riverina Presbytery and the Uniting Church Synod of NSW & ACT. It is not clear if services are still conducted at this location. The first Methodist service in the Trundle district was held in the home of Mr & Mrs Walter Berry, in September 1888. Services following continued to be held in other private homes, and later the Presbyterian Church. Land was purchased for a church building in 1929. In 1938, Mrs M A Berry, offered to fund the building of a church in memory of her late husband (Mr Walter Berry), which was opened by her on 25/3/1939. The church became part of the Uniting Church in 1977. The church held its fiftieth anniversay, and the Trundle Ladies Church Aid its 60th anniversary in 19891. More historical information/photographs of the church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 24/6/2025.
