Coogee, St Nicolas Anglican Church

St Nicolas Anglican Church is located along Brook Street, on the corner of Carr Street in the eastern suburb of Coogee. It was built in 1887 in the Gothic architectural style and reconstructed in 1906 after almost total destruction by fire on 18 August 1905.

    1. It seems there was a picket fence there originally. Those bricks certainly don't do it justice.
