Answers to Quiz 10: Churches
1. The building at the back is the first Wesleyan (or Methodist) chapel. You might recognise the church on the left: it's the current Wesleyan church on the corner of Market and Cantonment Street.
2. The Salvation Army Citadel was in William Street, just along from the Town Hall, on the corner with Henderson Street. There's now a multi-storey carpark on that site.
3. The Johnston Memorial (Congregational) Church used to stand where the horrible eyesore Johnson [sic] Court block of flats is now.
4. The sign on the building says Church of Christ, so that wasn't hard. I suppose you know where it is?
5. Again, the sign says it's the Church of Christ Scientist, and you should have seen it on the very prominent corner of Canning Highway and East Street - the northeast corner of Fremantle.
6. That was a little Presbyterian church in Baker Street, now a one-way street off South Street which terminates at the Beacy pub. It's now a residence.
7. I somehow found out this used to be the (1960) Assembly of God, tho it's been vacant for decades. Assemblies of God is an association of Pentecostal Christian churches.
8. St Anne's is now part of of the Croatian Catholic Centre as, again, the sign says. It's in Stirling Highway, just over the road from a liquor store.
9. The former Anglican Church of St Mary the Virgin (1895) is in North Fremantle, on QV street, on the corner of Jackson Street and also that of Jewell Parade.
10. It's a trick question. The Albert Hall (!) was never a church. It was probably built by Frederick Mason and was used after his own, wooden Mason's Hall burnt to the ground nearby in 1907.
10. So here's the answer to the real question 10. It's the 1930s Seamen's Chapel, in High Street not far from the Round House.
