In Remembrance

For over 150 years, the Ithon Road Presbyterian Church stood as a place of worship, community, and reflection. During times of war, it became a sanctuary of remembrance – honoring those who served and those who never returned.

This page is dedicated to the memory of the brave individuals from the congregation of our building, who gave their lives in the First and Second World Wars.
