Saint Stephen’s Anglican Church

The congregation of St. Stephen’s now in New Brighton worshipped for a while in Block 59 Red location, before a new church was built. The Church was built in 1907 at Red location and was of wood and iron structure. There was another built at Mount Road also known as St. Stephen’s Church which remained for sometime and ceased to be used in 1960. Canon Joseph Cowan planned the present church in Grattan Street. The foundation stone was laid on 25 May 1941 by Mr JL Walton who, together with the PE Church Extension Board, provided the funds for the building, which was consecrated in July that same year.
