Back to Other Hawthorn Plaques
A bluestone Gothic church erected in 1853-4 to the design of Charles Vickers, this is one of the earliest surviving substantial suburban churches in Melbourne, notable for its picturesque composition and siting. It comprises a three-bay nave, transepts, chancel and a timber octagonal turret to the north-west. Additions were made to the building between 1873-1953 including vestries, organ chamber and porch. The interior is notable for its elaborate wooden chancel screen, imported and local stained glass, and organ by Alfred Hunter, London, installed in 1877.
