Notes:
Return to Appin Rd and continue southwards. On the corner with King St are the grounds of St Bede¹s Roman Catholic Church. It was designed in 1837 by Father John Therry. An influential and historical figure Therry, along with a colleague, was, in 1820, the first priest to be appointed to Australia. Built in different stages by different tradesmen it was completed in 1841 and is considered the oldest Catholic church in mainland Australia to remain in continuous usage. Both the church and its cemetery have been listed by the National Trust. Its iron-roofed square tower, which once had a timber belfry, is remarkably similar to that of the Anglican Church. Both have historic graveyards. Latitude: -34.2015938783871, Longitude: 150.78731167322985
