• The place is a good example of a substantial red brick church building in the Federation Gothic style.
• The place is a landmark due to its size and form and location on the corner of Lindsay and Lefroy Streets and as such makes a significant contribution to the Coolgardie townscape.
• The place is associated with the discovery of gold in the region in 1892 and the subsequent development of the Coolgardie townsite in the 1890s.
• The place has associations with prominent architectural firm Cavanagh and Cavanagh.
• The place has social value for its religious, education and social associations since 1902.
The place is a double volume red brick building with gable frontage and a gable vented CGI roof. The front porch is located centrally in the façade and is also gable in form with a separate roof. The building is cruciform in plan. The building has horizontal rendered bands and reveals. There is a facetted bay to the rear.
In 1892, gold was discovered near Coolgardie by Bayley and Ford and the field was declared in that same year. This was followed by mass migration to this area by people eager to strike a claim of their own. The discovery of gold and the burgeoning town at Coolgardie signalled the further exploration and settlement of the remainder of what became known as the Eastern Goldfields area, and the town of Coolgardie developed as the mining, business and administrative centre of the Eastern Goldfields. The original church on the property was a timber framed and iron clad church dating from 1892. This was demolished to make way for the permanent brick building, for which the foundation stone was laid in 1902. The 1902 church was designed by well-known architectural firm Cavanagh and Cavanagh, who were responsible for the design of many buildings for the Roman Catholic Church around the state. J. Millington was awarded the building tender.

Constructed from 1902
A well maintained complete building representative of church buildings of the turn of the century. Connected with the early history of the State and the era's most influential catholic architects.
This building replaced and earlier timber framed, iron clad, unlined church from 1892. The current building was constructed in 1902. Designed in the gothic style typical for churches of all denominations at this time, it is a well built brick building with a simple auditory plan and a polygonal chancel, stucco dressings and corrugated iron roof. It is still in use.
The most substantial ecclesiastical building constructed at the height of Coolgardie's prosperity. Designed by Michael Cavanagh, a prominent Perth architect who practiced from 1895-1935. He designed many of the Catholic Church's buildings in W.A. at this time as well as many commercial, civic and residential buildings.
