Statement of Significance
The Epiphany Church is a notable and severe example of a Modern Gothic approach to traditional forms by the prolific church architect, Louis Williams. The brickwork detailing is notable and the building gains considerable distinction from its hilltop siting.

ANGLICAN CHURCH OF THE EPIPHANY (FORMER) - Physical Description 1
Williams designed an austere red brick structure situated on the highest part of the site facing High Street. Broad surfaces of brick are punctuated by pointed arched windows and are articulated by brick buttressing. Gothic motifs are simplified into geometric facets and planes, and have vertical emphasis, particularly in the tower. Dentilation and header courses give subtle counterpoint to the brick facets, whilst plate tracery stands out in contrast to the plain wall treatment. Large circular windows are located at the north and south gables.
