Valeur patrimoniale

The heritage value of Edgeley United Church lies in its status as one of the oldest Protestant churches in Saskatchewan. Early settlers in the area donated land, money, and volunteer labour to build a place of worship in 1883. Originally located outside of Edgeley near the cemetery, the building was moved on to its current location on Main Street in 1924 to make it more accessible. As the oldest building in Edgeley, the Edgeley United Church, with its original form and wood-frame construction, is a landmark in the community.
