A view of the western façade of St John the Evangelist Anglican Church in Fremantle, Western Australia. Located in King’s Square, this church was designed by W. Smith and built by J. J. Harwood and Son to replace an older church that had served the Anglican congregation in Fremantle since 1843. The foundation stone was laid in 1878 and the new building consecrated in 1882. Built in a Victorian neo-gothic style, the western façade of the church is notable for its high gable, rose window and the row of symmetrical lancet windows stretching across the width of the building.
