Summary[edit]

Description
English: See where this picture was taken. [?]

The church was erected between 1886 and 1889 by Mrs Helen Hay Mackie Baillie as a memorial to her late husband, John Hunter Baillie (1818-1854). Its sandstone spire reaches a height of 56m (182 ft) and is the tallest church spire in New South Wales, the twin 70m spires of Sydney's St Mary's Cathedral completed in 2000 are taller but are steel cored.

The church was designed by Cyril and Arthur Blacket, sons of the Colonial architect Edmund Blacket. Its interior features massive pillars of Aberdeen granite with Melbourne bluestone bases and capitals. The baptismal font and pulpit are carved from New Zealand Oamaru stone and green marble.

The church houses a large 19th Century organ by William Hill & Son of London.
