The Meeting House
The Ringwood Meeting House was built in 1727 by a group of Presbyterians. It is located in the centre of Ringwood, next to the municipal parking lot.
The Meeting House was once known as St. Thomas's Chapel. The chapel's birth, marriage and death records from 1748 are available on microfiche at the Ringwood Library.
The Meeting House is now run by the Ringwood Meeting House Association, a registered charity which funds the day-today running of the centre. Volunteers are often able to help with enquiries about local or family history. They have a collection of old photographs of Ringwood titled "Ringwood Then & Now", various census copies, and other memorabilia.
