Statement of Cultural Heritage Significance:

Statement of Significance: A church of which the original bluestone portion, dating from 1856-7, is quintessentially Webbian. The finely detailed west facade, with its gable belfry, bracketted string course, triple lancet windows and corner buttresses surmounted by pinnacles, is characteristic of Webb's church designs. The building was largely destroyed by fire in 1961, and the original nave was then incorporated as a transept in a new church (not included in the classification) by Louis Williams.
