Former Wesleyan Methodist Church Complex

Methodist Church ,  Auburn Uniting Church

81 Oxley Road, (cnr Hepburn Street), HAWTHORN VIC 3122 - Property No B4167

A veritable cathedral of Victorian Wesleyanism in which the brilliant young architect Alfred Dunn reinterpreted the Lombardic design of the Independent Church, Collins Street, in American Romanesque and using deep red and brown brickwork. The building was recognised as the finest Wesleyan church in Victoria, and the school and parsonage, while simpler, are also substantial, of the same materials and sympathetic in style. All of this reflects the position of the Hawthorn circuit as ... more

Former Wesleyan Methodist Church

King Street,, TARNAGULLA VIC 3551 - Property No B6534

Former Wesleyan Methodist Church

Uniting Church

250 - 254 Neerim Road,, CARNEGIE VIC 3163 - Property No B3370

The exterior treatment is a combination of red brick American Romanesque; English Arts & Crafts in the rough cast and the pseudo half-timbered gable (which itself has Art Nouveau overtones); and a North European, perhaps Baltic half-gabled tower with a slender spire.

Former Wyndham Shire Hall

49 Watton Road, (Cnr Duncans Road), WERRIBEE VIC 3030 - Property No B5072

A public building of 1893 which assumes a somewhat domestic character through the dominance of the single storey substructure by a high hipped roof (formerly terminating in a flagpole), and the stylistic influence of the Queen Anne Revival: the combination of this style with the fine Romanesque Revival entrance in three orders, and the tension between the symmetrical pavilion facade and the picturesque subsidiary massing, both reflect the flexible and innovative approach of the ... more
