The Scots Uniting Church is a heritage-listed Uniting Church in Australia church, located at 1702 Hume Highway, Campbellfield, Hume City, Victoria, Australia.[1] The church was added to the Victorian Heritage Register on 9 October 1974 in recognition of its historical, architectural and archaeological significance; and has one of the four remaining churchyards in Victoria.[2]
History
In 1842 a timber church was constructed on the site. In 1855 the bluestone church, designed by Charles Laing, was built to replace the original church.[2] The churchyard, which adjoins the church, has its earliest surviving gravestone from 1846 and the cemetery contains approximately 150 burials.[2]
