Registered Name |
Christ Church Anglican Church, Fincham and Hobday Pipe Organ and Clock |
Significance |
Christ Church Anglican Church at Kapunda represents one of the earliest works of the noted South Australian architect Edmund William Wright. Built in 1857, and extended in 1868, the church was the second to be designed by Wright and remains as his earliest most intact church. It is therefore an important element in the oeuvre of this significant architect. The church contains a pipe organ dating from 1885 which is one of only a very few relatively unaltered instruments made by the firm of Fincham and Hobday remaining in South Australia. Christ Church is also one of only four known churches in South Australia to have its bell tower embellished with a clock. (HSA Assessment Report 10/2002. |

Disclaimer
While due care has been taken to ensure that the SA Heritage Places Database accurately reflects the South Australian Heritage Register and listings of Local Heritage Places in Development Plans, the State of South Australia does not accept liability for the use of the SA Heritage Database for any purpose. Users should consult the Department for Environment and Water - Heritage South Australia to confirm the listing of State Heritage Places and the relevant Development Plan for Local Heritage Places/Contributory Items.
In the majority of cases, the maps of State Heritage Places on this web site show the footprints of the most significant structures on a registered Place. However, sometimes they simply indicate the complete area of land comprising the Place. Work is proceeding to further refine the mapping of such places. It is also important to note that development control is not limited to the registered structures but extends to their setting and structures nearby (what is termed ‘development affecting’ a State Heritage Place). Hence it is vital that exact details of the listed place and implications for any proposed development be discussed with Heritage South Australia staff, as they cannot be deduced solely from the information on this web site. The inclusion of a place in the SA Heritage Register gives no right of public access. Permission to visit properties must be sought from the owners. The accuracy of the mapping of State Heritage Places is not guaranteed. Please contact Heritage SA ( https://www.environment.sa.gov.au/topics/heritage/sa-heritage-register) if you believe there is an error.
