Brookfield Uniting Church is on a two-acre site overlooking the showground, donated to the church in 1871. The Brookfield community built a hall on the site, which served as school during the week and as a chapel for the Bible Christian Church on Sundays. The present building was erected in 1888, serving Wesleyan Methodists, then Methodists and continues as a Uniting Church. Though the congregation is small, Uniting Church activities give it a considerable presence in the community.
