Comments
The former Coonalpyn Uniting Church closed in 2022, and the property is listed for sale (2025). The church had been part of the Presbytery of Southern SA and the Uniting Church Synod of South Australia. The church building was opened on 30/4/1927 by the Rev G H Bayly, after many years of planning and fund raising. Prior to the erection of this church building, the Parkin Congregational Mission held worship services in the Coonalpyn Institute Hall. For some time the Catholic Church also used the building to celebrate Mass. No other details are known. More historical information/photographs of the former church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 20/2/2022 & 31/5/2025.
