The United Methodist Church is located in the heart of Paisley. This church was erected in 1901 and there's a historical marker located at the front entrance that reads:

PAISLEY UNITED
METHODIST
CHURCH

ONE OF THE OLDEST
WOOD FRAME CHURCHES IN
NORTHERN LAKE COUNTY.
1898-MINNIE & HERMAN
SADLER OF SAN FRANCISCO
DONATED LOTS 4 AND 5

FOR THIS STRUCTURE
ANDPARSONAGE.
AUG. 9, 1900-DEEDED TO
THE CONGREGATION.
FEB. 3, 1901-COMPLETED &
DEDICATED AS THE UNITED
METHODIST CHURCH.

I don't know if this bell in the bell is still functional but would assume it is. The bell is smaller than many I've come across in my travels. This bell tower also serves as a U.S. benchmark, and listed as a centenarian church (over 100 years old) in the 'This Old Church' category.
