Constructed of locally sourced granite, the church building serves as a 'fine example of a
Federation Gothic Revival style church,' and has been deemed to be of exceptional significance to the town's heritage. Plans for the construction of the church were passed by February of 1908, with construction beginning in April, and the majority of the work completed around September. It was licensed for use that same month, and then officially consecrated by
Bishop Riley on the 18th of January, 1909. The church remained part of the Diocese of Perth until 1928 when the boundaries between Perth and the North West were redrawn. Northampton (along with the territories of Greenough, Geraldton, and Mullewa) were given over to the North West diocese in an effort to provide them with a more stable base of operations. == See also ==
