They were able exponents of Gothic Revival and other styles, especially built in wood, but also in masonry and concrete. They designed numerous public (especially churches, notable examples of which are Church of St John the Baptist, Parnell,[1] St Patrick's Cathedral, Auckland and the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, Khyber Pass Road and private buildings, many of which are still standing.
