| 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. |
