Catholic Church Inventory	Adopted	01 Jul 1998			Heritage Council
Municipal Inventory	Adopted	18 Mar 1998	Category 4	Category 4 Some heritage value, but not essential to an understanding of the district. Recommend that the place is not included on the Town Planning Scheme at this time. Re-assess the significance of the place when the Inventory is regularly reviewed. Assess in more detail when considering a development application. Record the place prior to redevelopment or demolition. This category is not included in the Town Planning Scheme, and therefore a planning application is not required for proposed development or demolition of the place. Should a building or demolition application be received by Shire, it should be considered on the basis of the recognised heritage value, and the owner offered the same consultation facilities as for the Town Planning Scheme. The places in this category should be reviewed regularly with consideration for inclusion in the Town Planning Scheme.

Statement of Significance

The place demonstrates a way of life.

Physical Description

The grey cement brick construction has a painted corrugated iron roof. The gable roof is
replicated on the entry porch at the front of the church. External piers alternate along the sides of the
building with rectangular stained glass windows.

History

The church was opened on 26 July 1953, by the Archbishop of Perth,
Prendiville. The Hyden Church was constructed to the same plan and design as the Kulin and Dudinin
churches within the overall plan of the Kulin-Kondinin Parish. They were all consecrated on the same
weekend in 1953. The cement bricks were all made by the local men, mixing and moulding the cement.
The community men did as much work as possible, with the builders completing the task.
