Comments

The St Mary's Catholic Church, Cooktown is part of the Parish of Cooktown and the Diocese of Cairns. The Cooktown church was established about 1875. An early church building was destroyed in a cyclone in 1907, and replaced by a wooden structure the same year. It was replaced by the current church building (date unknown). No other details are known. More historical information/photographs of the church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 18/10/2023.
