Statement of Significance
A. Two successive Congregational churches which epitomise the mainstream of the bichrome and polychrome brick church architecture of Victoria between the 1860s and the 1880s, as well as relating well and deliberately to each other. The first church (later hall) was built in 1867-8 to the design of the eccleiastically prolific firm of Crouch & Wilson, and is now, after Joseph Reed's St Jude's, Carlton (of the previous year) the oldest fully-fledged polychrome Gothic church surviving in Melbourne. B. The second church of 1874-5 is a fine design by W H Ellerker, with a triple gable end and decorative polychrome friezes running up the gables, and a most distinctive galleried apse and plaster-vaulted interior.
