Chacewater Church 1866

Disaster strikes

On 25 November 1865, a great storm carried away the whole of the southern roof. Whilst still being repaired, the church was again struck by lightning on the morning of 3 February 1866 when another great storm came, and was significantly damaged beyond use. Divine services had to be moved to the Sunday School.
