The original St Thomas Church was established by Captain Allen Gardiner in 1935 on the ridge on Berea. In 1895 the work commenced on designing this church to replace the earlier church on the Berea. The design by Athur Fyfe and William Street Wilson culminated in the laying of the foundation stone on 21 December 1899. This web site has an album with images of the site on the Ridge and that of the cemetery. This album has imagery of the church interior and exterior, memorabilia, stain glass windows and priests.
