History and Architecture:

The original stone church, now the church hall, dates from 1887. The modern brick church, a hundred metres to the south on Glynburn Road, was built in 1963, while standing between these two is the oldest building of them all, the current Church Office, erected as the Burnside Council Chambers in 1869.  A foundation stone was laid on 9 September 1962 by the Bishop of Adelaide C.W. Muceke.

The architect of the current church, Stewart Game, was a parishioner of St David’s.
