Here it stood at the end of a large ballroom where it was depicted in Victoria and its Metropolis (1888).

The instrument well exemplifies the domestic aspirations of a notable resident on Marvellous Melbourne. It ... more

Former Uniting Free Methodist Church

Congregational Church

72 Peel Street,, WINDSOR VIC 3181 - Property No B0548

The only known surviving Uniting Methodist Free Church in Victoria, built in 1858 with a pilastrated Stuccoed facade distinguished by the use of a Greek Revival parapet block composition in place of the more usual pediment. The facade is largely intact but most of the Georgian windows have been replaced and the porch appears to be an afterthought; possibly dating from 1872 when the building was taken over by the Congregationalists.

Alan Sumner Stained Glass- Uniting Church

Cnr Lower Heidelberg Road and King Street,, IVANHOE EAST VIC 3079 - Property No B6517

Stained Glass "Scenes from Life & Ministry of Christ". The four "4-panel" sections of the South Wall and the windows now installed in the porch are the major featues of the rather unattractive and poorly constructed (yet apparently much cared for) cream brick building (1961). In toto they represent works created by the artist over a period of more than 3 decades and during several when the art of stained glass in Austrlia had sunk into decline. On reviewing them recently ... more
