While I have been through Berry many times over the decades, this was the first time that I had gone down the side streets to check out the rest of Berry. I parked opposite the Church, as there was so many tourists stopping to shop and look. Some of the Presbyterian parishioners were heading into the hall as I was taking photos.

While the first [timber] church was built here in 1878, the current brown brick Church was built in 1934. "The copper spire and stained glass windows were given to the church by Scots Church in Sydney, which was demolished to make way for the approaches to the Sydney Harbour Bridge." Scots' Church, Berry, [NSW]
