St Mary of the Angels Catholic Church
17 Boulcott Street, Wellington 6001; Telephone: 64 4 473 8074

Opened in 1922 after being built to replace the previous St Mary of the Angels (a wooden building built in 1874 and destroyed by fire in May 1918).

The church was designed by architect Frederick de Jersey Clere, who designed a number of Wellington buildings which are still standing - St Andrew's on The Terrace, the Wellington Rowing Club, St Gerard's Monastery (above Oriental Bay) and the Bond Store and Wellington Harbour Board Head Office building, now the Museum of Wellington City & Sea.

Built of steel reinforced concrete for a cost of £35,202 (and an architect's fee of £2,045) the church remains much as it was when first built, although damaged by earthquake in 1942 requiring major repair work.

It continues as a working catholic church
