All Saints Church, Taiping, Perak Malaysia

All Saints Church is a charming wooden church that was the first Anglican Church in the Federated Malay States. It stands on a plot of land donated by W.V. Drummond, an estate owner from Shanghai. The original structure was designed by Australian architect G.A. Lefroy and completed in 1886 and consecrated in 1887. Within its compound are the graves of British officers who died while on duty away from their homeland. Unfortunately, it was shut when I visited in Feb 2009 and so I couldn't get to see inside.
