Statement of Significance

The building and its surrounds for part of the historic central precinct of gingin and enhance its character. Opened for use in 1871, this beautiful little church has served the needs of a very large area and is still in use.

Physical Description

This building is of clay brick with CGI roof and features. Small buttresses to the sides and corners. The side entrance door has been unsympathetically set and we urge that this be replaced with a planked door and with arching to the doorway to conform with the building's style.
