Former Newcastle Presbyterian church revamped
ST Philip's Presbyterian Church in Newcastle is set to be given a new lease of life as a restaurant, wedding reception venue and function centre.
Sydney-based owners Robert and Mark Croft have proposed a $1.5 million renovation of the Watt Street premises.
The 105-year-old building was sold last year.
The St Philip's congregation is leasing the property while preparing to relocate.
A development application lodged with Newcastle City Council said the inner-city congregation had declined.
