This is St. Peter's Anglican Church in Hermanus, a major coastal town about 100km/60mi east of Cape Town. The foundation stone is dated 1933. The tower was built in 1937. The tower makes the Church more typically English in style, as Anglican Churches in South Africa usually have a bell turret instead of a tower. You may click on the photo to enlarge to 70k.

I love the look of stone churches and I particularly appreciate Anglican churches (coming from an Anglican tradition).
This is a beaut!
If you ever build your very own stone Church, choose the stone wisely! :-) Ours is built of Table Mountain sandstone, and I'm not sure whether it is more sand or more stone.
