| Description : |
Moockra Tower, north east of Wilmington. Moockra comes from the Aboriginal word meaning 'rainy place' - Manning Alfred Sells was an Anglican clergyman from England who arrived in South Australia in May 1877 and became the Incumbent of Holy Trinity Church at Lyndoch and later the Incumbent at St Michael's Church at Mitcham for four years from February 1884. He returned to England in 1888. The paintings were done in England, presumably from sketches made while in Australia. |
