Through the efforts of the Traill Family and some dedicated Anglicans, the original weatherboard church was built in 1899.

This was destroyed by a bush fire in 1913, and rebuilt as a brick building during 1913 – 1914.

The Narthex was added in 1975. St Agnes Church has some magnificent examples  of W.H. Montgomery’s stained glass windows and a fine wooden Rood Screen carved by Elsie Traill, one of the first women wood carvers in Victoria.
