Chinese Burning Tower

This structure is some four metres in height. It is a hexagonal tuck-pointed brick structure. The roof is peaked and of galvanised sheet metal. The structure was and is used for the burning of offering by the Chinese during specific ceremonies.

The major burial ground for the Chinese exists at the White Hills Cemetery, however there are some 250 Chinese buried near to the burning tower. The site has a number of footstones, the first Chinese burial occurring in 1859.

Constructed about 1872 this very picturesque building is the major feature confronting those who enter from the main gates in Carpenter Street. Constructed of granite quarried at Harcourt is it flanked by two Southern Magnolias.

A timber steeple crowns the building and the portico features a doorway with concentric arches and collarettes, and a cloverleaf finial.

The building has a number of fine stained glass windows which have been recently reinstated. Plans are now afoot to restore the building.
