Built on the lands of the Wurundjeri people, the Northcote Uniting Church was founded in 1854, across the road from the current bluestone church. Since its establishment, Northcote Uniting Church has been a hub for various communities.

The building is often attributed to the prolific church architect Thomas Crouch, who also designed the Northcote Brickworks. Crouch is known to have designed the extension in 1855, while the façade, which is more recent, reflects a different style. Despite these changes, the back of the church remains in its original condition.
