"The focal point of the village and the core of the Bainbridge Historic District is the village green, a landscaped park ornamented with a Victorian bandstand, carved stone memorials, and a cast-iron fountain. Two historic churches face the green: to the southeast is the Federal style Presbyterian Church with a two-stage octagonal belfry; southwest of the park is St. Peter's Episcopal Church which retains its Gothic windows despite unsympathetic alterations to the facade and belfry. The cemetery, set off by an iron fence and a lich gate, faces the southern corner of the green...St. Peter's Episcopal Church was built on the south side of the common in 1826, and in 1831, the Presbyterians built a new church on the east side."
