Kingsgrove, Our Lady of Fatima Catholic Church

Our Lady of Fatima Catholic Church is located along Shaw Street in the southern suburb of Kingsgrove. Designed by architects Maclurcan and Brown and built in 1970, it was the first church in Australia, and one of the first in the world, to have a central altar.

  1. It looks modern and well-kept. I'd guess you mean 1970?

  6. I like the way the shadows huddle under the roof's overhang.
