Old John Tower

Historical landmark

👍👍 This is the best park in the whole world. I love it so much. You feel you are walking in a story. This was a private estate that has been put into public hands, so it is the best. It feels a great monument to Lady Gray.

St Michael with St Mary's Church, Melbourne

Episcopal church

👍👍 By any measure, this is a very impressive parish church. Started in 1120 and still having most of its original Norman stonework, it is one of the finest Norman parish churches in the country. It was partly renovated in the 1630s and again, fairly sensitively, in 1859-1862 by George Gilbert Scott a...
