St George's Anglican Church, Beenleigh

St George's Anglican Church, Beenleigh, Heritage-listed Anglican church in Beenleigh, Australia.

St George's Anglican Church is a single-storey, single-skin timber building on low concrete stumps, with steeply pitched galvanised corrugated iron gable roofs. Its rectangular plan has a narrower, lower chancel at the north end and a gabled porch on the west side as the only entry. The walls are vertical jointed boards over an exposed stud frame with decorative cross bracing, and a replica timber bell tower stands in front.

The church was built in 1875 following architect Francis Drummond Greville Stanley's design and was the first religious building in Beenleigh. It marked the start of organized Anglican community life in this early settlement.

The building was the first church in Beenleigh, where the Reverend Dubois preached in the local court house from March 1871 until a congregation formed and tenders were called in May 1874. It served the Southport Parish and later a mission district before Beenleigh became a parish in 1982. A replica of the original timber bell tower stands in front of the church.

The building is now located in Beenleigh Historical Village, where it can be viewed as part of a larger collection of heritage structures. The site is straightforward to access and provides insight into the region's early architectural traditions.

The church was built by craftsmen Wohlsen and Ehlers who used special timber joinery techniques to hold the structure together. These handcrafted details are visible on closer inspection in the decorative cross bracing and curved elements throughout the building.
