St. Andrew (Methodist and U.R.C.) on Dawson Street, built as Primitive Methodist in 1868, and sporting a rather handsome date-stone. NZ 166 355. Both © Peter Morgan (2013). Link. Grade II* listed.

Previously listed as St. Andrew (U.R.C.), it is evidently not that church (for which see above) unless it has two buildings. Can you clarify what it is or was? © Alan Blacklock. Mike Berrell has advised (from here) that this building on Whitfield Street was originally St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church, becoming U.R.C. following the union in 1972. A Local Ecumenical Partnership formed in or soon after 2004, and the Dawson Street church (above) was retained, with this church closing. A Google Earth image of May 2009 shows it boarded up at that time.
