Anglican Church of the Good Shepherd, Heritage-listed Anglican church in Brookfield, Australia.
The Anglican Church of the Good Shepherd is a timber building in Brookfield with a four-bay nave, chancel, north vestry, and west porch that holds around eighty people. The structure features Gothic-influenced design elements throughout its timber construction.
Local Anglican parishioners founded the church in 1892 after holding services in temporary buildings and private homes for years. The construction cost 220 pounds and provided the community with a permanent place of worship.
The congregation brings together families, teenagers, single parents, and people from many backgrounds who gather for worship and community events. This place serves as a social hub where people build relationships and support one another.
Sunday services run in the morning and evening, with options to join from home if needed. The location on Brookfield Road is straightforward to access if you plan to visit in person.
The interior displays metal tie rods and carved timber details on the gable boards that preserve early craftsmanship. The small three-part east window stands out for its unexpectedly simple scale compared to the rest of the building.
