Statement of Significance

St. Peter's Church of England, Bridgewater, was opened on 5 August 1884 by Bishop Thornton. The simple rectangular plan, Early English Gothic style structure is constructed of rendered masonry with an iron clad roof, entrance porch and half octagonal sanctuary by local builder John Hardie. It is typical of a country parish Church of the 1880's in Victoria and is distinguished by its unusual fenestration patterns and design austerity.
