AddressWentworth Street, ShellharbourDescriptionArchitect and builder John Simmons built St Paul’s Church of England in 1886 on land given by T.A. Reddall.

Miss Annie Reddall laid the foundation stone for the new building using a mallet and silver trowel presented to her. St Paul’s replaced the first stone Church on this site, erected by Mr. W. James in 1859 and closed due to crumbling of the stonework. The first Church was demolished in the 1880s and the stone used to kerb the town’s streets.

St Paul’s remains a striking architectural feature in the Village; set on top of a rise, at one time the Church would have been seen from miles around.
