Drawing of ALDERSHOT PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH, Oct. 28th 1956 - Plan to turn first sod for Presbyterian Kirk The sod for the first Presbyterian church in Aldershot will be turned this Sunday at noon. The church located on LaSalle Road near the Aldershot stop light, is the work of a congregation under three years old. Of contemporary design by Basil Hall, a Hamilton architect, the church will contain a church proper seating 400 people and a Sunday School hall. Later an auditorium will be added. The estimated $100,000 cost of the building is being financed by loans from the mother church, St. Paul's Presbyterian Church in Hamilton, by the Presbytery's Church Extension Fund, by the Presbyterian Church of Canada Peace Thank Offering Fund and by grants from the congregation. It is expected that the church will be completed by spring of 1957. Taking part in the sod turning will be the Rev. William Black, minister of the Aldershot congregation, the Rev. Charles Carnegie, Moderator of the Synod of Hamilton and London, and representative of the Hamilton Presbytery and William J. Moffatt, purchasing and lots committee member of the Presbyterian Extension.
