The plaque in front reads:
===============================================
Built in 1861, Christ Church is a fine example of the mid-
19th-century revival of mediaeval Gothic forms in religious
architecture. This use of traditional models reinforced the
broader role of the Anglican church as a stabilizing influence
in a turbulent gold-rush community. Designed by the Royal
Engineers, the building features a side entrance beneath the bell
tower, leading to an interior focused on an altar placed within
a raised chancel. Christ Church is a charming reminder of the
early years of the province's history and remains a vital part of
community life.
