Comments

The Willamulka Methodist Church closed in May 1977. It was erected for the Bible Christian Church, on land donated by Mr W H B Paterson, and opened on 21/12/1885. Prior to the church building the congregation met in a bush tent [Sourced from: https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/128405054]. No other details are known. More historical information/photographs of the former church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 3/3/2025.
