Description
The Congregational Church in South Molton is a building that dates back to 1605, as indicated on its pediment, although it likely incorporates elements from an earlier structure on the site. The current building was constructed in the mid-19th century and features two storeys made of stone rubble with a slate roof. Architectural details include a central pediment and cornice, pilasters, two round-headed windows, and a central circular window. The entrance is marked by a pedimented porch with a curved pediment. Additionally, there are spear railings with urns placed at regular intervals around the property.
