Just to the right of the handrailed concrete ramp to the entrance of the Church (at the western end) is a white marble tablet as a Foundation Stone, which reads as follows:

	    A    M    D    C

 This Foundation Stone of the Church of

 Saint Christopher Weethalle was Laid by

the Right Reverend the Bishop of Riverina

     on the 25th day of July 1954

This is a modest-sized rectangular, white-painted, rendered brick building with rectangular and tapered buttresses to the sides. There are four wooden framed rectangular double hung windows on each side, with a smaller one in the vestry/entry. There is a small cross on either end of the hip corrugated iron roof.

There is no off-street parking, but the highway is generally fairly quite, and probably more so on a Sunday morning, when the services are held on the first and third Sunday of the month, at 11:30am.

Address: Railway Street (aka Mid Western Highway), Weethalle, NSW, 2669, Australia
