The ground selected for the building is on a grant of land belonging to the Wesleyan body, siutated on the Breakfast Creek Road, and about forty yards from the Church of England. The Gothic style of architecture has been adopted for the plan of the church, which is to be built entirely of brick and finished with cement The total length is to be 60 feet with a width of 35, and it is calculated that the church when completed will seat about 500 worshippers. Proper ventilation is to be secured by the use of sash windows, which can be opened and closed at pleasure, and gas sunlights which will introduced to give an abundance of light. T Rading (builder)
