Ramblings of a much published New Zealand author

Country Churches of NZ 8. St. Barnabas, Peria, Northland

I wrote and illustrated Country Churches of New Zealand. It was published in 2002 by New Holland, Publishers and is still on sale in bookshops. The publishers have kindly agreed to me re-publishing some of the book’s images and descriptions in this blog.


ST BARNABAS, PERIA

Opposite the local school, in broad green pastures and a not-very-crowded graveyard, you can smell the polish in St Barnabas, Peria.

It is clearly a much loved and carefully groomed church and wears its age well. It was dedicated by the Bishop of Auckland, O.T.L. Crossley, on Tuesday 26 March 1912.
