BIBLE CHRISTIAN CHURCH - Physical Description 1
The former Bible Christian, and later Presbyterian church at Redesdale is designed in the Primitive Gothic style and constructed in 1875. Elements of the style include the use of gable roofs and pointed arch windows. Often there is a small round window or oculus that becomes a feature of the gable end as is the case for this church. Variations to the style include whether a porch has been attached to the front or side of the main building and whether the entry is to the front or side of the porch. In this case the church has a small porch attached to the end with entry from the front.
Variations in building materials are evident across the Bendigo region and the Redesdale church is constructed of bluestone in a snecked, coursed and squared rubble.
There is a timber framed and weatherboarded room at the rear of the church with a brick chimney. The door to the church appears to be original; however the fanlight and other windows are not visible or missing and have been blocked in. Although it is now vacant, the church is in relatively good condition.BIBLE CHRISTIAN CHURCH - Physical Conditions
