Nederduits Gereformeerde Kerk, Reformed church building in Barrydale, South Africa

The Nederduits Gereformeerde Kerk in Barrydale is a church building completed in 1911 after the congregation decided in 1905 to replace its 1877 church. Master builders Moon & Ledbury built it for £5,131 without an architect, and the cornerstone was laid on 28 March 1908 by Rev. J. W. Louw of Ladismith.

The congregation was founded on 8 September 1880, though 1881 is traditionally given as its founding year. In 1905 the church council decided to replace the 1877 church and set a budget of £5,000. Of 19 tenders, builders Moon & Ledbury won at £4,518; without an architect the final cost was £5,131. The cornerstone was laid on 28 March 1908 by Rev. J. W. Louw of Ladismith, and the building was completed within three years.

The congregation was founded on 8 September 1880, though its foundation year is traditionally given as 1881. The village itself was laid out by the Barry family of Swellendam and named after their ancestor Joseph Barry, a merchant, farmer, shipowner and member of parliament. In 2014 the congregation counted 49 baptized and 211 professing members under Rev. W. J. van Zyl.

The church stands in Barrydale on the R62, 62.5 km south-east of Montagu and about 45 km from Swellendam through the Tradouw Pass. The building was completed within three years of the 1905 decision to replace the 1877 church, and the cornerstone was laid on 28 March 1908. Look for the cornerstone inscription when walking past.

The church's pipe organ is a Norman & Beard instrument from 1908, one of only three of its kind in South Africa. It was already insured for R500,000 in 1997. The congregation saved £300 on the church by dispensing with an architect, though the final cost reached £5,131.
