Dear Monument Australia visitors, we are a self-funded, non-profit organisation, dedicated to recording monuments throughout Australia. Over time the costs of maintaining this website have risen substantially (in fact they are probably larger than those of many companies who exist for profit). In the past we have borne all the costs associated with maintaining the website but we are now having difficulties in paying the monthly expenses.
If Monument Australia is useful to you, please make a donation to keep this historical and educational resource available. Your help would be greatly appreciated.
Centenary of All Saints Church Print Page 
Foundation stone of the chapel marks the centenary of the All Saints Church 1862 -1962.
A large bluestone church, the nave of which was erected in 1862 to the design of local architect Joseph L Shaw. The church was greatly extended first in 1918 by the addition of a sweeping semi-circular apse of a somewhat French character designed by Alexander North and in 1928 by a south transept and spire designed by Louis R Williams. The building contains notable stained glass by Ferguson & Urie and a distinctive internal roof structure.
