Apart from great historic interest, architecture, character and atmosphere make it worthy of retention. In the graveyard are buried many pioneer settlers, including parents of Lord Forrest. Unusual wooden headstones.

One of the earliest buildings in Western Australia. Wooden building recently renovated, preserving a small portion of the original wall showing the laborious work of Mr Wollaston and his sons. Has rich dark ceilings now effectively lighted and is beautifully furnished. Wollaston purchased the bell from one of the earliest wrecks; it is still in use.
