Situated at the junction of St Joseph Street/Horace Street, Halliwell and connected with the earlier Chapel/ School on Hobart Street.
(Following the completion of the School Chapel) Attention was now directed to providing a suitable residence for the Priest of the Mission. On the 3rd of June, 1884, the building of the Presbytery was commenced. A bazaar, in aid of the Presbytery fund, realised over £200; and, to the eternal credit of the congregation, the Presbytery was completed, free of debt.
