Geocache Description:


This collection of caches has nothing to do with the Church Micro series in the UK. Given that the Australian 2016 census indicates that No Religion and Jedi Knight are the fastest increasing classifications of the optional religion question "What is the person's religion?" it is not surprising that there is surfeit of empty churches that have been re-purposed.

This limestone and brick building was erected in 1859 as a Congregational Church by Rev. R.W. Newland. The original church bell came from the P .S. Melbourne. The Church was also used for Church of Christ and Catholic services before being purchased in 1883 for the Court Pride of the Murray Foresters Friendly Society. In 1960, the building was sold for private use. The building is currently used by dentists.

From the plaque adjacent to the front door collect the following details to determine the location of the nearby cache.
