Comments

The former St John's Anglican Church, Riddells Creek closed on 7/6/2025, and the property is proposed for sale. The church had been part of the Parish of Gisborne and the Diocese of Melbourne. The present church building was erected on land donated by Mr John Riddell, and opened in 1926. Early Anglican services in the district began about 1858, with the first church building opened on 14/4/1861 by Bishop O'Quinn. It was later moved to the current church site. The church has been ministring in the district for about 167 years. More historical information/photographs of the former church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 12/2/2019.
