Quetta Memorial Precinct, Heritage memorial precinct in Thursday Island, Queensland, Australia

The Quetta Memorial Precinct is a heritage site on Thursday Island comprising the All Souls and St Bartholomew's Cathedral Church, the Bishop's House, and the Church Hall along Douglas Street. The structures showcase Anglican architecture from multiple periods between the 1890s and mid-20th century.

The precinct was established in the 1890s as a response to the 1890 shipwreck of the RMS Quetta, which resulted in over 130 deaths near the island. The construction of the church and surrounding buildings served as a memorial to this maritime tragedy.

The cathedral serves as a gathering place for the island's Anglican community during worship and religious observances. Today, visitors can see how the church functions as a spiritual center for local residents and visitors alike.

The site is easily reached on foot and located centrally on Thursday Island along Douglas Street. The main buildings and memorial plaques are accessible during daylight hours and invite self-guided exploration.

The Bishop's House was built in 1891 as the residence of the first rector of the Church of England parish on Thursday Island. In 1900 it became the home of the first Bishop of the Diocese of Carpentaria, which covered a vast area of about 300,000 square miles.
