Wesley Uniting Church, Broken Hill, Methodist church in Broken Hill, Australia

Wesley Uniting Church is a Gothic Revival church on the corner of Cobalt and Sulphide Streets, designed by Frederick William Dancker and built from 1885 to 1888 by Walter and Morris. The stone church measures 22 by 18 metres, with a 9-metre ceiling and an 18-metre spire. A large stone lecture hall stands behind it.

The foundation stone was laid in 1888 and the building opened that same December, originally designed to hold around 880 worshippers. Its construction coincided with the silver mining boom that shaped the town's early development.

The first Willyama High School held classes in the Wesleyan hall for five years, and in 1895-96 the hall served as the first primary school while Burke Ward school was being built. The church and hall together cost A£6,000, furnishings and vestments included.

The church sits at a central intersection making it easy to locate while walking through town. Access is straightforward, and the building is clearly visible from the street.

The 1963 works for the church's 75th anniversary cost A£1,200 and added a 4-metre wooden cross; the choir loft was then bricked in to make a place to hang it. Restoration in 1986–87 removed the brickwork and exposed the original loft again.
