Comments
The Chapel of St Alban, Southport is in The Southport School, which is part of the Synod of the Diocese of Brisbane and the Anglican Church Southern Queensland. "From 1913 Canon HH Dixon, the School's founder, worked hard to build a Chapel, for he believed that it must be the very centre of School life. It was consecrated in 1921 by the Archbishop of Brisbane". [Sourced from: https://www.tss.qld.edu.au/community/chapel ]. More historical information/photographs of the Chapel are invited.
