The station building, now All Saints Church in Canberra

The station was an ornate stone building. After its closure the station building was dismantled and moved to Canberra, where it is now All Saints Church. The rebuilt church contains some modifications, the most obvious of which is the change in position of the bell tower to the opposite side.^[2] ImageMetadata File history File links Download high resolution version (1184x888, 159 KB) Summary All Saints Church, ainslie, ACT.
