Description:
Rare colonial engraving of St. Mark’s Darling Point, looking north east prior to the addition of the spire.
The church was constructed between 1848 and 1880, from a design by Colonial Architect, Edmund Blacket, It was completed in 1854 without the spire, a gift from William Laidley, added later. In 1861 the church was extended to the west to include the porch and gallery. Prior to completion of this building, accommodation for worshippers in this section of the parish of Alexandria was provided by Thomas Ware Smart of Mona, who converted one of his cottages in Mona Lane in the Chapel of St Mark. In 1863 Wolliam Bradley of Lindesay built at his expense, the present vestries.
