Comments

The St Aidan's Anglican Church, Berrigan is part of the Parish of Mulwala, Berrigan with Oaklands and the Diocese of Riverina. Early Anglican services began about 1890, with a block of land donated by Mr Greggery in 1896 for the erection of a church building. However, due to the absence of funds at the time, the church building was not erected until 1902. The church building was opened in Novemebr 1902. More historical information/photographs of the church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 4/8/2023.
