History and Architecture:

Notes in the Church minutes of 1885 read, " It was desided to "lengthen the Church to 10 ft, in the clear" This was done by Martin & Ward for 42.16.0, with extras amounting to £10.10.0 and the Church was re-opened two months later. In 1886 the Chapel was allowed for use by the Government for a day school which continued until 1911". 

A plaque reads, " To Commemorate The Centenary Of WINTANERTA METHODIST CHURCH Built on this Site in 1880 unveiled 28th September 1980".
