St. Monica's Church - Physical Description 1
A modest Early English Gothic Revival parish church constructed from coursed random rubble basalt. It compares in Footscray to the Wesleyan and Presbyterian churches but it possesses superior window tracery detailing, carried out in Waurn Ponds sandstone. Instead of the typical foliated bosses on the entry label moulds, the carved heads of Jesus and Mary are used. The west window glazing is not coloured or patterned in contrast to the richly detailed sacristy window.
St. Monica's Church - Integrity
External Integrity
The boundary timber picket fence has gone and the stone dressings painted over. A Modern style framed covered way links the Church with the residence.
