A small, carefully detailed, Gothic Revival church, built in the late nineteenth century on a site donated by Isaac Bloom of nearby Tanderagee House. The simple form of this church is enlivened by the highly quality ashlar detailing to the nave and porch. The plain exterior is enriched by the yellow brick detailing to the window surrounds and eaves, which provide an aesthetic contrast to the rustic detail of the stone walling. The church and hall form an interesting ensemble that is an important part of the town's social and architectural heritage.
