Anglican Church, Holy Trinity, High Street
The original church hall was built in Church Street in 1856 but was partly destroyed in a storm. This site was purchased in 1860 and the existing church, designed by D R Drape, was built in 1861, it is the largest building of local stone. The principal material is blue ragstone and has dressings of grey granite and was constructed by stonemasons W Bowe and Sons. The roof is of scissor trussed rafters and colonial timber, thought to be the only one of its kind in Australia. The handworked kneeling cushions are worked with designs to match the stained glass windows. The western stained glass window was made in 1864, one of the first ones made in Victoria. The organ was made in 1893 and fully restored in 1991. The iron fence replaced the original picket fence some time between 1884 and 1897.

Baptist Church, Templeton Street
This English Baptist church was built in 1896 after a split with the Welsh Baptist Church in 1895. The two churches reunited in 1930 and this building is now used as the church, with the Welsh Baptist Church used as the church hall.

Catholic Church, St Brigids, Chapel Street
The Catholic church was first established in Maldon in 1854. In 1857 the decision was made to relocate to a morre suitable site and land for the exisiting site was purchased in 1858. The construction of the new brick church was started in 1858 but was not completed until 1861. In 1881 the brick church was showing serious signs of decay and the existing 300 seat church was built in 1891. The adjacent school building was built in 1915.

Methodist Church, Fountain Street
The property contains the original Methodist church halls, 1855 and 1861, parsonage, 1858, and the Methodist church, 1863. The church hall was the earliest church building constructed in Maldon and is not square to Fountain Street as its construction preceded the survey of the town. The church was designed by Crouch and Wilson and is said to be modelled on their design for a Methodist church in Emerald Hill. The church halls functioned as a school and the surrounding grounds were used as a cemetery prior to the opening of the Maldon Cemetery. Bill Maldon Woodfull, Australian Test Cricket Captain in the 1930s, was born in the manse during the time of his father's ministry.

Presbyterian Church, Church Street
The existing building, which is now the "Neighbourhood Centre", was built in 1905 with the foundation stone being laid by Mrs M Oswald. The first wooden church was built on the west side of the existing building and was later removed.

Welsh Baptist Church, Francis Street
The Welsh Baptist church was built in 1865, moving from the 1859 weatherboard church in Harker Street. The existing church was extended by the erection of a similar building but without the entrance porch.

Welsh Congregational Church, Church Street
The first Congregational services were held in the Royal Hotel hall. In 1863 the site was acquired and the current church was built. The Welsh period of the church ended in 1893 when the church joined the Congregational Union. Later additions were made to the church between 1901 and 1905.
