Introduction

Firstly, for a general background on Pugin as a designer, his relationship with Robert William Willson, first Bishop of Hobart Town, their shared vision and the nature of the designs, we suggest you read the introductory material in the Pugin Trail page for St Patrick's, Colebrook. here.

Tour Guide

A tour guide will be available for downloading here in the near future.

Church Essay

We strongly recommend that you read our essay on St Paul's Church before undertaking a tour of the building. It can be downloaded here (pdf/1.55MB). It would be of use to take on the tour along with the guide.

Church opening times

Regrettably, because of the danger of theft and vandalism, St Paul's Church is not currently open. It may be possible, as we have done for St Patrick's, Colebrook, to have the church open at advertised times with the help of our Friends of Pugin, hopefully in the not too distant future. In the meantime you might try phoning local resident Irvin Kean on +61 3 6254 1167.
