St Johns Anglican Church

The St John's Anglican Church houses an outstanding collection of stained glass memorial windows by the 19th century artist, writer and designer William Morris.

Knox Presbyterian Church

The first Presbyterian church was built in Cheviot in 1896.  It was burnt down in 1955.  A tin church was moved onto the site in 1919 as a Sunday School and sold to the RSA in 1952.

The present church building is built with stone gathered from the Hurunui River with a lot of input from the local community.  It was opened in September 1953 and the foundation stone was part of the Mansion House.  In 2018 the decision was made by the Presbyterian church to sell the buildings and in August 2018 the church and hall were purchased by the Cheviot Knox Community Centre Trust on behalf of the Cheviot community.
