In New Shoreham, along Spring Street, is St. Andrews Parish Center.

The church is located on the east side of the road, about a half mile south of the center of Old Harbor.

The building is a rectangular structure with extensions on the south end, each with a peaked roof. Rising above the roof is an anchor form. The web site for the parish states that this location is the winter church. The summer church is elsewhere on Chapel Street in Old Harbor.

I couldn't find information about when this building was built - it looks modern. The congregation was started in 1899.
