Description

St Andrew’s Anglican Church is in the town of Carrick in northern Tasmania. The church was transformed from a schoolhouse by Thomas Reibey of Hadspen in 1845, who became its first minister and was later succeeded by his brother. The tower was added in 1863. St Andrew’s was consecrated by Tasmania’s first Anglican Bishop, Francis Russell Nixon. The stuccoed brick church is in the Gothic Revival style and features a pointed arched entrance and windows, and a square tower with crenelated parapets, buttresses, and lancet windows.
