Clayfield is bordered to the north by Nundah, to the east by Ascot and Hendra, to the west by Wooloowin and to the south by Albion.

[3] This industry, once known as "the clay fields", was instrumental in the residential surge of European settlement of inner-north Brisbane.

[9][10][11] A map advertising the auction states the land is situated on the main Sandgate Road and Kedron Brook.

A map advertising the auction states the Estate was exactly opposite Eagle Junction Railway Station with 30 trains passing a day.

A map advertising the auction includes a local sketch of the area that shows close proximity to the railway line.

In December, a Sunday School hall was added to the northern side of the church on the corner of Norman Parade.

[18] On 28 October 1899, sixty allotments of land of "Albion Hill Estate", being re-subdivisions 1 to 60, of subdivision of section 3 of portion 162, Parish of Enoggera, were advertised for auction by Isles, Love & Co.[19][20] The advertising map states the estate's proximity to Albion Train Station, with 76 trains daily.

[23][24] The church was re-built and opened on Sunday 13 April 1902 by Reverend Robert Stewart, President of the Queensland Methodist Conference.

The Eagle Junction Congregational Church and its adjacent hall at 5 Norman Parade were sold into private ownership;[26] both buildings still exist and are listed on the Brisbane Heritage Register.
