St John's is the only church in Heathcote still standing on the original site granted by the Government in the land sale of 1853/54. The smaller Budd Hall was the original building, first named Christ Church and built in 1854. Although it has undergone renovations it remains one of the oldest buildings in the town, named after the Rev Theodore Budd, minister from 1856-67.
Present church building consecrated on 3 October 1889.
