Comments
The former St Anthony's Catholic Church, Watsons Bay was the first Catholic church built in the district, largely by the local Portuguese community, in the 1870s. It was replaced by Our Lady Star of the Sea Catholic Church (see separate entry - 2026), and is now part of the Vaughan Retirement Village. More historical information/photographs of the former church/congregation are invited. Photograph uploaded 4/3/2021.
