Anglican Church of the Good Shepherd
Anglican Church of the Good Shepherd is a heritage-listed church at 615 Brookfield Road, Brookfield, City of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. It was built from 1892 to 1893. It was added to the Queensland Heritage Register on 28 April 2000. History The Anglican Church of the Good Shepherd was constructed in 1892. The architect is unknown, however, it is possible that the design may be attributed to the work of John Hingeston Buckeridge, architect for the Anglican Diocese of Brisbane from 1886–1902. Buckeridge lived in Sydney from 1892 and managed the design of church buildings from there. Reverend John Vincent, the first chaplain in the penal settlement of Moreton Bay, then part of the Diocese of Newcastle, arrived in 1829. Up until the late 1840s, parishioners held services in makeshift buildings, open-air services and in private homes. In 1848 land was chosen in the present Queen's Park in George Street for the first Anglican Church in Brisbane, St John the Evangelist. With the establishment of the Colony of Queensland in December 1859, it became necessary to form a new diocese within the Anglican Church. The Bishop of the new Diocese of Brisbane, Reverend Edward Wyndham Tufnell, arrived in September 1860. Tufnell
