Comments

The current Scots Uniting (Presbyterian) Church building was erected in 1908 and opened in 1909. It was the second Presbyterian Church building in Casterton. The first Presbyterian Church building was erected about 1865 at 160 Henty Street. It was sold when it became too small for the congregation.(see separate entry). The present Scots Uniting Church was formed after the formation of the Uniting Church in 1977. No other details are known about the present church. More historical information/photographs of the church/congregation are invited. Photograph uploaded 2/5/2020.
