St James' Anglican Church ruins

St James' Anglican Church ruins in Riccarton on a rainy day.

Contributors note: "St James Church on Riccarton Road was pulled down after more than a decade standing derelict. A box of bibles lay beside me in the rain while I took this image. A metaphor for desolation and sacrilege. 2025"
