Summary

North Terrace West, on the eastern corner of North Terrace and Morphett Street, Adelaide. Trinity Church was built in 1836, in the Victorian Gothic style, with pointed windows, roof trusses and masonry arches. The Reverend Charles Beaumont Howard, the first Colonial Chaplain, who arrived on H.M.S Buffalo on 28th December 1836, was the first Rector. There have been a number of alterations and additions over the years, with a major reconstruction in 1888-89. For a view taken soon after the tower and the Church walls were heightened, see B 1446. Although not obvious in this photo,these alterations are clearly visible because the original stone could not be matched.
