Description

Baptist church built in 1862. It is constructed of red sandstone rubble with yellow sandstone dressings and has a slate roof. The facade is symmetrical and features four giant Doric pilasters and a moulded open pediment. Between the outer pilasters are round-headed windows with glazing bars, sill bands, and impost bands. Above the doorway is a large window, now boarded over, which has a round head with a keystone, sill band, and an impost band that continues the frieze of the pediment. The doorway also has a round head with a keystone and impost band. The side walls consist of four bays and have round-headed windows with glazing bars. The interior has a wide shallow vault, a west gallery, and original fittings. (Kelly's Directory 1876)
