All Saints' Anglican Church, Preston

Cnr High Street and Murray Road, Preston

The first Anglican church in Preston was built in 1865 on the corner of Tyler Street and Plenty Road. 
When it suffered declining services a new church, All Saints, was built on the corner of Murray Road and High Street laying its foundation stone in 1889. .

In April 1921 All Saints became a separate parish and in 1930, the original church was demolished and a new brick building built in its place.
