The church sign faces west & the severe heat has faded it so you need to look closely for the actual name.
When I visited in March the temperature was 37 degrees Celsius & I sought refuge in the shade, something the parishioners no doubt appreciate. The building was dedicated by Archdeacon of Armidale, the Venerable Clifford R. Rothero on 28th March 1958.
Although a War Memorial Church no Honour Roll was ever erected. A list of veterans was prepared with memorial plaques placed on the pews in recognition of the donors, some of whom were veterans. Some plagues are memorials to WW1 servicemen.
Information regarding the War Memorials was obtained from The Register of War Memorials in NSW viz (
