Carlton Church of All Nations

The Carlton Church of All Nations, formerly known as the Carlton Wesleyan Methodist Church, first held religious services in 1870. Located on 180 Palmerston Street, Carlton, the bluestone-covered church was built alongside the former smaller red brick Wesleyan chapel which was constructed first. That is why it looks like two completely different buildings.
