It stands between the fish market and two lanes. The structure of the church can be described as a modern structure. The Good Shepherd church has undergone many changes in the past few years, one of the notable changes is the construction of the Blessed Sacrament and the wall behind the altar made of strong marble. It is built next to the Sarita Lawns Convent. The Church and the Convent share the same ground, except that it has been separated by a wall. At the left hand side of the church is an empty marshland. There are a lot of controversies surrounding this empty marshland plot, one of which was based on a dispute with the landlord, who now wants to construct a building. Of late the marshland has been converted to a dry barren land, with not much grass. The fish market and the church together form an L-shaped structure securing this plot.
