St Stephen's church in Marton was founded in 1871 when the foundation stone was laid by Bishop Hadfield.
The church was designed by George F. Allen of Wanganui in the perpendicular Gothic style. This stunning church features a free standing belfry and a Norman & Beard organ in original condition.
St Andrews Church is located on the right hand side of Bridge St (State Highway 3) as you travel north towards Wanganui.
The church was built in 1881 for a cost of 388 pounds by Mr J. Bull, the local builder. The building is of Totara timber, simple in design, but attractive.
St. Thomas was built in 1877 at a cost of 590 pounds. Consecrated by Bishop Hadfield, the architect was Charles Tringham. St Thomas is a mid-Victorian Gothic building with tower, apse and sanctuary and built with totara pegs and dowels, rather than nails.
