Marrickville, Church of Christ

The Church of Christ is located along Illawarra Road and Grove Street, in the inner west suburb of Marrickville. It was designed by Alfred Newman and built in 1912 in the Romanesque architectural style.

  1. at some point you might run out of churches to photograph! I'd love to see images of your libraries! I bet they are splendid! Cheers!

  2. the shadow resembles a cocktail glass, not something you'd see inside!

  3. Were there enough glass windows to allow the natural light to stream in? My guess is that the church might have been a bit dark inside.

  4. An architectural style you don't really see much of here.

  6. I'd love to see the three windows and the sign appears to be blocking three more. Please ask the to move the sign. Tom The Backroads Traveller

  7. I'm so used to seeing churches with landscaping around them that I really miss it here.

  8. Is the house to the left attached to the building? I wonder if it was church hall.

    1. Diana, the house is completely detached. It seems too small to have ever been used as a church hall.
