All Saints' Anglican Church is a single storey building constructed of Donnybrook stone dressed and laid in courses with a steeply pitched gabled corrugated iron roof. There is a gabled porch at the front of the building and projecting transepts contribute to the traditional cruciform plan.The church is the oldest building built of Donnybrook stone in the town.
On 27 October 1906 Dr. J. Winthrop Hackett, M.L.C., who owned land in the district, laid the foundation stone and on 29 June 1907 Bishop Goldsmith of Bunbury, dedicated the Church.
The foundation stone (which I could not locate) is inscribed
"AD MAJORUM DEI GLORIAM
HUNC LAPIDEM POSUIT
JOHANNES WINTHROP HACKETT LLD
XXVII OCT AD 1906."
Date the Church was built, dedicated or cornerstone laid: 10/27/1906
