Wesleyan Church, Silverton.
When it opened on 20 January 1886 it was the Silverton Presbyterian Church.
However during a strong wind storm in 1891 the Methodist Church building was destroyed, it provided the Presbyterians with a golden opportunity to sell their church building to the Methodists.
The sale of the church building proved to be a blessing in disguise for the Presbyterian Minister as it allowed him the opportunity to begin a new career in mining and he apparently became something of an expert in the mining field.
He would later leave the mining sector to follow another career path as a journalist and poet.
