Detail InformationEdit

“St Philip’s Church, Sydney is the oldest Anglican church parish in Australia. The church is located in the Sydney CBD, between York Street, Clarence and Jamison Streets on a location known as Church Hill. St Philip’s is part of the Diocese of Sydney, Australia. The church is listed on the Register of the National Estate.
The original church was built by orders of the colony’s first chaplain, Rev Richard Johnson using convict labour in June 1793. The wattle and daub construction church was later burnt down by convicts in 1798. A second stone church operated on the current site of Lang Park from 1810 to 1856. It was made from poor materials and gained a reputation as “”the ugliest church in Christendom””. This second church had a 150-feet high, round clock tower.
The current building on York Street is the second church building on Church Hill (the wattle and daub church was built on the corner of Bligh and Hunter Streets), and was designed by Edmund Blacket. It was built 1848-56. The church tower was styled after Magdalen Tower at Oxford, United Kingdom, and was opened in 1856.”
