Comments

The former St Barnabas' Anglican Church, Shefield has now closed, and the property has been sold.  It was part of the Diocese of Tasmania. The present church building was opened on 10/9/1978 by the Rt Rev H A Jerrim, having been erected to replace the former Main Street building (see separate entry - 7306). This church building was sold by the Diocese in September 2019, to meet its National Redress obligations. More historical information/photographs of the former church/congregation are invited.
