Church of the Good Shepherd, Anglican church in Phillipstown, Christchurch, New Zealand

The Church of the Good Shepherd featured red brick walls with contrasting stone bands in a Gothic Revival architectural design by Benjamin Mountfort.

The Church Property Trustees acquired the land in March 1883 for ten shillings, leading to the construction of the church in 1885.

The church served as a central religious institution where local residents gathered for weekly services, weddings, baptisms, and community functions.

Following structural damage from earthquakes in September 2010 and February 2011, the historic church building required complete demolition.

The structure maintained its status as the final remaining brick church designed by Mountfort until its demolition after the 2011 earthquake.
