This frame sanctuary, built in 1856 during the pastorate of Rev. A.K. Durham, was described at its dedication as being the result of "the liberal contributions and unfaltering zeal of this community." Notable features include its large inset portico and interior gallery. The rear addition was built in 1950 to house the Sunday School and baptistry.
