Comments

The St Michael's Catholic Church, Little River is part of the Parish of Werribee and the Diocese of Melbourne. The first church building was a bluestone structure, erected about 1857, and replaced by the current building, which was opened on 2/4/1922 by Archbishop Daniel Mannix. The original building had become too small following the population increase after World War I. The building cost was funded by a bequest from Mr Ewen McIntosh. No other details are known. More historical information/photographs of the church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 27/3/2022.
