Summary

Christian Chapel (later in 1933 became Church of Christ) on Robert Street (now Orsmond Street) Hindmarsh. Located on the south west side of the street about 20 yards south east of Mary Street. The chapel was erected in 1855 and in 1894 a porch was added to the front. This matched the stone and quoins of the original chapel. On the extreme left was the Sunday School which was erected before the church and belonged to Thomas Magarey. Thomas Magarey endowed chapels in Hindmarsh (1854) and in Grote Street (1856). He was a miller and sheep pastoralist who also was a member of both Upper and Lower Houses. He advocated the teaching of the Bible in public schools.
