The Rocks, St Patrick's Catholic Church

St Patrick's Catholic Church is located on the corner of Grosvenor Street and Harrington Street at The Rocks. The heritage listed church was designed by John Broadbent, reworked by John Frederick Hilly and built in 1844 in the Old Colonial Gothic Picturesque architectural style.

    1. We love the gothic style as well. But the surrounding buildings make the church look under-sized.

  6. Weird when buildings that probably used to be tall and impressive in their day now seem to be crouching in the shadow of much taller modern buildings... :o
