This Uniting Church is located on the corner of Concord Road and Sydney Street, in the western suburb of Concord. This heritage listed church was designed by J.C.R. Mills and built in 1927 in the Inter-War Romanesque style. It was a Methodist Church until 1977 when the Congregational Union in Australia, the Methodist Church of Australasia and the Presbyterian Church of Australia joined together to form the Uniting Church in Australia. It is now a Sydney Cheil (Korean) Uniting Church. It's a shame they've now erected a giant road sign which blocks the view from the main road.

I'm reminded of a church of that architecture style here.
ReplyDeleteThat giant road sign is a real eyesore. Bummer.
