Description:

Scarce c.19th hand coloured engraved view of the interior of the Independent Church, Collins Street.

The first church on the site was built in 1839–41, one of the first churches in the Port Phillip District. Following the appointment of the Rev. A. M. Henderson, that structure was demolished in 1863 to make way for the present building, completed in 1866. It was designed by architect Joseph Reed, who had also designed the Melbourne Town Hall, and later the Royal Exhibition Building.

From the original edition of the Australasian Sketcher.
