Though sided with asbestos today, the exterior of this church would have originally looked just like the interior, as seen below. The congregation dates to 28 September 1887, though I’m not sure when the church was built.
It’s set on fieldstone pillars.
Update: Chloe Evans Holloway notes, as of February 2023: It has been torn down and nothing is there but a sign and the graveyard. I have 3 or 4 generations of my family in the graveyard. My grandfather built the wooden caskets for many of the families who are buried there.

Sad to hear that it’s gone, Chloe. I’ll update it.
Talk about standing on the solid rock.
I’m surprised a local church hasn’t grabbed this prize and moved it. It’s wonderful.
This little place has story to tell
