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. THOMAS'S, MEEANEE
St Thomas's, Meeanee - St Mary's Anglican neighbour - was consecrated on 26 May 1887 by the Bishop of Waiapu.
Its plans were by Clere & Clere, Wellington. The architects were Cooper & Finch of Napier. It was built for £344 on land given by a local coach proprietor, George Rymer, whose old stables are still in Meeanee.
