While on our first trip into the city, we passed these two buildings, so, of course I had to stop and take a picture or two. I was not able to find any sign which told me anything about the church or hall, however, here they are.
As Paul and I travel around Australia, I have decided to photograph some of the Churches we come across while out on 'The Track'. This Blog is an off shoot of our main Blog, which is called 'Along The Wallaby Track'.

Bendigo - View Hill Fellowship - Victoria - C1890 - 1920
This wee church sits on a small hill in the city of Bendigo.
The sign reads “ View Hill Fellowship – House of True Light. Anglican Diocese of Bendigo. Previously All Saints Old Cathedral.A congregation of the Church of Bendigo.”
I was not able to determine the date this church was built, however, as the style is similar to many of the older buildings around Bendigo I would hazard a guess at Circa 1890 – 1920s. It appears the church is now used by the Chinese people of Bendigo. I was particularly taken with the windows which have an Asian influence in the colour they are painted.
