Statement of Significance
A Wesleyan Methodist church which was built in 1870-75 to the design of the architects McPherson & Laurie and renovated in 1895; all to a scale and quality which reflects the strength of the denomination on the Bendigo gold diggings. The church is notable for a quite exceptionally fine and intact decorative scheme consisting principally of a star-spangled ceiling and imitati on masonry block walls, nearly all of which is in good condition.There are cedar pews to seat 550. The exterior is in bichrome yellow on red brickwork, with a Lombardic step-bracketted gable and gothic pinnacles.
