Episode 1552,   Apr 29, 2022, 02:28 AM

There’s a campaign to save the oldest Presbyterian church building in South Australia, which is in need of repairs.

The icon of the town was built by Scottish settlers in 1848 and is considered to hold both spiritual and cultural significance.

Helen Stacey from the fundraising and publicity group joins Jennie Lenman to discuss the project, the history of the church and region and to tell us about  Theatrical-Historical Tours of the church and town in the first two weekends of May.

(Kirk & Town: St Andrews & Early Strathalbyn tours are on 7 & 8 May and 14 & 15 May at 2pm  followed by country-style afternoon tea in the Hall.  Book through TryBooking.com or phone 0438 847 329.)
