Comments

The former Purnim Presbyterian Church has closed, and the property has been sold (1975?). The church had been part of the Presbyterian Church of Victoria. The stone church building was erected about 1870/1. No other details are known. More historical information/photographs of the former church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 23/2/2015 and 23/6/2019.
