Old Bishopsbourne, Historic religious residence in Milton, Australia.
Old Bishopsbourne stands at 233 Milton Road as a two-story structure built with local porphyry and sandstone, featuring Gothic stone arches and extensive verandahs.
The residence, constructed between 1865 and 1868, served as the home for Edward Tufnell, the first Anglican Bishop of Brisbane, and subsequent Anglican primates until 1964.
The Chapel of the Holy Spirit, added in 1912, incorporates Australian flora motifs in its sanctuary panels and maintains regular Anglican services for theological students.
The property houses St Francis Theological College since 1936, with educational facilities, dormitories, and a library building constructed in 1959.
The site retains original 1870s garden elements, including Hoop and Bunya pines, with fragments of indigenous eucalypt woodland surviving from the initial construction period.
