Condition
Good This site was the location of the Methodist Church built in 1915 at a location in Carmel. The hall was relocated to this site in 1961. At the time of the relocation a stone bench seat was built in memory of early settlers Kate and Fred Wallis. The plaque on the bench reads ‘REST AWHILE. A tribute to the memory of our loved parents, Kate and Fred Wallis, 1880-1961’. Frederick Rueben Wallis (1880-1961) was an orchardist and an active community member, particularly of the Methodist church. Kate Winifred Wallis (nee Edwards) (1881-1960) brought up her five children in the Walliston district. The church has since been demolished but the bench remains.
