History
Religious – The first Church built in Tammin with the foundation stone being laid by Mr John Packham who was an early pioneer of the district. The Church represents significant development of the Tammin community since its construction in 1932. A committee of towns and district community members formed 12 years previously raised the required funds. Arch Bishop Le Fanu officially consecrated and opened the Church on 26th March 1933. Until the opening of St. Mark’s all church services and functions were conducted in the Shire Town Hall. Various religious denominations utilised St. Mark’s for their own services and functions until the mid 1950’s. St. Mark’s Anglican Church continues to play a prominent role in the community.
