EAST BRUNSWICK PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH (FORMER) - Physical Description 1
The former East Brunswick Presbyterian Church is a late Edwardian Church with a hipped (corrugated galvanised steel?) roof. The church is constructed from red brick, with weatherboards and a louvred vent in the tip of the gable end. The church portrays vaguely gothic detailing, with pointed arches to the windows on all elevations, and a stylised rendered parapet to the narthex on the front elevation. Windows have colured glass leadlight panels and the double front door are vertical timber boards.
There appears to be a building or buildings located at the rear of the site. The corrugated iron gabled roof is visible from the street, howver the building itself is not visible and the property was unable to be accessed. Therefore it can not be confirmed whether this building/s is the original 1887 church or c.1905 Sunday school.EAST BRUNSWICK PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH (FORMER) - Physical Conditions
