    The churches of Bishop Robert Gray & Mrs Sophia Gray : an historical and architectural review
    (2002) Martin, Desmond; Godby, Michael
    Bishop Robert Gray, the first Anglican Bishop of Cape Town, came to South Africa in 1848 to establish a province of the Established Church, the Church of England in the Cape Colony, adjacent territories and the island of St Helena. Gray's fourfold objective was to increase the number of clergy, to build churches and schools, to establish missions among the 'heathen' and to found a training college for young men. The focus of the thesis is Gray's second objective - his church building programme.
