The Church in Pictures.

The present church building

The present church was consecrated in July 1979. The building is of red brick construction with a narrow spire. This drew much public attention during the latter stages of construction as it was lowered into place by helicopter.

Following completion of the building, it was beset by a major structural defect relating to the roof support. This has since been rectified.

History of the parish

Records of the parish of Holy Trinity date back as far as the 1830s.

The original church was situated on Parliament Street. This was of rendered finish and had a bell tower. The bell, sadly, was unable to be used due to safety concerns for many years.
