Reviewed By 214francisd - Ipswich, Australia
ONE of THE places to see in Ipswich before the Council tears it down like many Heritage Buildings have gone because of a non cultural mob. It's so so sad to see great little Miners Cottages go. No value for the past. This was to be THE cathedral for Qld. Catholic Church. The Presbytery [Priests Home] has Itialian Portico with Bishops Mitres on each arch. There has never been a bishop there regardless of the years it has stood majestically floodlit at night. It is THE most beautiful building in S.E.Qld and you can't miss it. It was build in the Depression times and the stonemasons were paid with meat and food for their work. Over the road on the fence are the old horse ties from the days of horses. It needs care and costs huge dollars now to upkeep. The NEW stained glass windows just don't fit the building. They are a disaster and need removing badly. The Organ needs work and again it's heritage instrument. Oe of the Crosses hit by lightening went through the roof They are massive steel. Like a Wedding cake on the Canvas it's a delight regardless of what Faith we have.

Cunninghams Knoll, opposite Queens Park on the main entrance to Ipswich, pays homage to the region's early European explorers as well as its convict history. Ipswich was once established as a convict station to mine Limestone to make mortar for the buildings being constructed in Moreton Bay Penal Colony (which would eventually become Brisbane).
