122-124 Napier Street,, FITZROY VIC 3065 - Property No B2415

An incomplete bluestone church built in 1871 to the design of George Browne and of interest for stylistic details of the west front. These include the star tracery at the head of the five light west window and the superimposed colonettes of the flanking buttresses. Browne was to introduce similar colonettes in this secular non-Gothic work as part of an innovative and eclectic palette which presages the boom style. The interior incorporates a hammer-beam roof, elaborate plaster ... more

136-140 Drummond Street,, OAKLEIGH VIC 3166 - Property No B5842

A church buit in 1928 to the design of Haddon & Henderson, and combining Haddonian touches, like the wrought iron lamp cantilever at the entrance and the blindoculus suspended from the parapet, with an overall mannered and clumsy form. The corner tower is a squat octagon with a crenellated top and a risible etiolated spire, and the west window is capped by a strange projecting rectangle in cement. Classified State: 24/08/1989

A Presbyterian church of 1885-6 by the Bairnsdale architect A F Kraemer on a quasi-auditorium plan with a broad polygonal transept-like termination and a complex roof of strutted rafters and scissor trusses, carried from strange clusters of foliated corbels; all in thin construction and now regrettably in a parlous structural state, as well as being seriously defaced by additions to the main front.

Uniting Church

Ebden Street,, KYNETON VIC 3444 - Property No B0631

A bluestone church of 1857 of a naive character, and with a quaint concave roofed bellcote. Although the design is attributed to a member of the congregation, James Thomson, the octagonal pinnacles are strongly reminiscent of the work of the local architect William Douglas. The porch of 1932 and the unsympathetic modern roofing are excluded. Classified; 17/11/1977
