Our first St John's Church
In the early years of settlement in Upper Beaconsfield, church services were held in private homes. In 1883 the South Bourke and Mornington Journal reported that Mrs Lawes, who lived in St Georges Road, near today’s Scout Camp, had lent a room in her home for the purpose of holding Church of England services twice a month.
