The foundation stone for St Andrew's Presbyterian Churchwas laid on 7 June 1893 and the Church was opened on 15 April 1894.The Church is a rendered masonry building with a ribbed metal gable roof with gablet ventilators. The building has buttressing, expressed string courses, and the render is scribed to imitate ashlar.
In October 2002 it was reported that the building was structurally unsound, and the church was closed.The church building was later sold and became a second-hand furniture emporium.In 2018, the building was extensively restored as 'The Church Events Venue', a business specialising in 'weddings from ceremony to reception' as well as corporate events.
