Description
The former Congregational Church, now known as Ebenezer Hall, is an early 19th-century chapel. It features a stuccoed exterior with a slate roof and a gabled front that has three bays, accented by corner pilasters. The central bay projects slightly and contains a tall pointed arch window with an elliptical recess above it, flanked by round-headed niches that are topped by a plain entablature. There is also a round-headed niche in the gable above. The side windows are pointed arches with intersecting glazing bars, separated by pilasters. The interior was altered in the late 19th century.
