The Church was designed by Michael Francis Cavanagh in a gothic revival style, the foundation stone was laid on St Patrick’s Day, 17 March 1898 ( a thorough search of the outside of the building failed to locate the foundation stone ). The nave was opened on 3 June 1900. The design incorporated a nave with aisles and clerestory, transepts, a wide and spacious apse, with a tower and spire supported by flying buttresses rising from the northern side.

The building was raised to the status of a minor basilica in 1994 and is heritage listed
