Originally built for Presbyterian worship, it became part of the Uniting Church in Australia following the union of several Protestant denominations in 1977. The church is known for its acoustics and has hosted a variety of musical performances beyond religious services throughout its history, becoming a recognised venue for both choral and instrumental music. Its pipe organ is a notable feature of the building.
