00400 St Joseph's Roman Catholic Church Precinct
St Josephs Precinct, an area that once comprised the early 1866-8 church, the 1933 Church, the rectory and convent and school has cultural heritage significance as a centre of development of the community with special significance to Roman Catholics and the surviving buildings illustrate a range of periods and styles. The place also demonstrates the Church’s long establishment in Busselton.
The precinct includes the early 1866-8 church, the 1933 Church and the site of the rectory and convent and school. See individual building listings.
Historical Notes: The precinct grew through time with the first of the churches being built by voluntary labour. The collection of buildings grew through time and developed into a Roman Catholic precinct that included the town churches, convent, school and rectory. Only the church designed by E. le B. Henderson survives and is in use. The first church is now part of a shopping centre.
Integrity Notes: Some of the elements have been removed and it is difficult to discern a precinct in the physical sense. The precinct retains a low degree of integrity. Authenticity Notes: See individual listings Low/-
