Statement of Significance
The site signifies the once standing Church used by two religious groups in the Boddington area. The Church Hall was the only one of this type in the district.
Physical Description
The church was a single-storey timber clad auditory building with a high-pitched roof and porch. It was roofed with corrugated iron and lined with earth coloured paint.
History
The Baptist community originally built the Baptist church on the 8th of December 1945. The Church of England bought the church in 1959. It was used by the Church of England for many years before it was dedicated by the Bishop. In 1965, the church hall was dedicated to St James, and accordingly, its name changed.
The Church Hall was recorded to be suffering severe deterioration in 2002, with white ant activity, broken windows, and water leakage. The Church Hall was demolished soon after. The property has now become part of a small residential development.
