An image of the Holy Trinity Church in York, Western Australia. Completed in 1854 and consecrated in 1858, the Holy Trinity Church possesses features which are characteristic of the Victorian Romanesque, Carpenter Gothic and Gothic Revival architectural styles. Throughout the nineteenth century in the United Kingdom, Australia and America, the Gothic manifested itself in a variety of architectural forms. Based on, yet distinct from, British nineteenth-century medievalism, Australian medievalist buildings appropriated elements of medievalist design in ways which suited the Australian climate, materials and unique colonial settings.
The most obvious evocation of the medieval in the design of the church as is noticeable in this image is the castle turret. The simplicity of the church's design (both structurally and aesthetically) is typical of the Carpenter Gothic style, known for its pointed arches, towers and steep gables, as well as light-frame construction.

Jewell, Dora Ferguson, WA, Western Australia, WA Missionary Society, Bishop Hale, Christian, Christianity, Swanleigh, missionary, arch, arches
An image of Saint Mary's Anglican Church in Middle Swan between Jane Brook and the Swan River, alongside Swanleigh Hostel. It was built on land originally purchased in 1838 by the WA Missionary Society for a mission and mission chapel.
In 1839 the foundation stone of the first Saint Mary's was laid by the Governor John Hutt on the same site. The first service was held on the 29th of November 1840 by Reverend William Mitchell with Governor Hutt in attendance. However, after thirty years of faithful service, the original Saint Mary's was replaced by the current church building.
The currently standing Saint Mary's Anglican Church was designed by Mr R. Jewell and the foundation stone was laid by a Mrs Dora Ferguson in 1868. It was opened and consecrated on 10 March 1869 by Bishop Hale of the Perth Diocese.
Saint Mary's possesses features that are typical of the Gothic Revival style which was popular in Australia and the United Kingdom throughout the nineteenth century. Typical of this are its single lancet windows and arched Gothic doorways.
(Information regarding the church has been obtained from the plaque erected near the building in 2005 by Swan Parish).
