418 Hobart Road, Youngtown, Launceston, Tasmania |
| Heritage Significance: |
Constructed in 1845, it is a fine example of a primitive Gothic church “cruciform in plan with a side narthex and vestry opposite. The southern gable apex has a small bell tower corbelled out from the wall”. Unusually for Tasmanian churches it has an open fireplace within the church itself. The church is the last remnant of the village which existed here and is of townscape and historical value. |
