Summary

Methodist Church, Mt. Barker. The Dunn Memorial Church was built in 1881. A kindergarten hall was erected nextdoor. John Dunn arrived in South Australia in 1840 and fulfilled a life long ambition of becoming a miller. He erected his first mill in the Hay Valley and later another mill at Mount Barker. From these small beginnings he prospered and he eventually owned eleven mills making his business the largest milling firm in the colony. He was elected to Parliament in 1857 and is remembered as a great townsman and benefactor.
