Brickendon Estate Chapel

The Brickendon Estate Chapel, Longford is a private chapel which was built in the 1850s for the purpose of meeting the religious needs of the Estate's convict workers. The Brickendon Historic Farm and Convict Village was built by William Archer in 1824; the village is still owned by his descendants. The complex represents a genuine Georgian farming village, complete with homestead, convict-built Gothic chapel, Dutch barns, chicken house, blacksmith shop and tool shed. William developed Brickendon into a mixed farming enterprise with cropping being a major focus, using a convict workforce of up to 50 people who lived in the tiny village he created? More historical information/photographs of the church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded  12/6/2023.
