Statement of Significance

A prominent brick church, designed by Evander McIver and built in 1878-9, comprising a tall buttressed and pinnacled nave, apse and 45 metre tower with cement-faced spire. The building is of particular interest for its external use of polychromy and the spire with oversize lucarnes and pinnacles. The spacious interior, originally seating 880, has a gallery on three sides, with swag-bellied cast-iron balustrading, raked floor, and stained glass by Ferguson & Urie.
