ARCHITECTURE
No. 6 Fortescue Street is a single-storey Woodside Baptist Church; constructed in painted brick and rendered brick, with a gabled, corrugated-iron roof. It is a fine expression of the Inter-War Gothic style. The front entrance is located via a small porch on the north elevation. Entry is from both the east and west sides. The porch features a pair of lancet windows facing the street. Beyond the porch the façade is divided by four buttresses. Above the front porch is a gable, which has an oval window and then a round vent. The nave is articulated with four bays and divided by a stepped front porch. There is a lance window in each bay.
