The Cherry Gardens Church, its garden and its gravestones are an integral part of the heritage of our district. They’re a reminder of those who have gone before, paving the way for our generation, and of the Christian faith that underpinned the community. Just a reminder that the Church community is always available to assist anyone who has a pastoral need.
