  To be honest St Stephens the church has its charm, but it's not really the church that I come to visit, time and time again. The Church sits within a memorial park here in Newtown.. It's actually the old cemetery that is the draw here. Look this is just off King St and very easy to get to, and I keep visiting for me it's a place that I can go on my own to just find quiet and contemplate, or a place off the hub hub trail where you can just rest and stop for a while. The entry into the churchyard and cemetery is inspiring, mainly because of this huge old tree on the right with massive tentacle roots and a huge canopy.

  Immediately when you see this sentinel you can feel the outside fade into the background. Looking past the giant tree is a meandering trail through grass and old, and somewhat crumbling gravestones. This is not a big cemetery but you feel peace, whiles you contemplatively meander or sit for a while, there are always locals in there.. With the odd pet.. Sit, read, stare, think, photograph, watch and breathe! It is one place that I also love taking friends who haven't been before, weather they bee Sydney spiders or visitors. I took a good friend who is Chinese, my phone died and asked if he could take a photo of grave... He wasn't comfortable out of respect for the dead. It's worth a look and the. You can sit in the park or better still have a bite on King St, the vibe is always great.
