Ranelagh Huonville, Tasmania

St. James's Church in Ranelagh Hunonville is an Anglican Church (Church of England) was built in 1896 the previous one built in wood was destroyed by fire.  The very first church was built of brick in 1853.  So three church in total.

  2. A very pretty white church with its bright and cheerful yellow doors. Love the white picket fencing too. Thank you Margaret and have a great week :)

  3. The people who worship in that church did not give up, building 3 churches on that site. I would like to see inside it.

    1. Very dedicated are those people, each generation.
      I have seen pictures of inside and it has a dark wood ceiling and of course dark wooden seats. The church was locked so no photos of inside from me.

    1. Oh yes, nothing like a yellow door of a church, something we don't see often.

  9. Eso es lo qu pasa con la madera. En España no conozco ninguna iglesia que haya construído con ese materialo.

    Tiene una estética muy bonita la iglesia.

    1. There are quite a number of timber churches in Tasmania, usually found in rather small villages..

  11. Beautiful church, it looks like a colonial building, the color of the door draws my attention, but the contrast is pleasant.
    Greetings.

    1. It’s different having yellow doors on that church, first church I’ve seen with that colour.

  12. It looks simple and beautiful, just as it is expected from a house of religion. It is built for people who gather here to worship God and learn His ways.
