"The church sits on a slight rise overlooking SR WW. The large lot on which the church and cemetery sit is level with a band of trees lining the east border and scattered trees around the church and in the cemetery. The cemetery is located west of the church and addition. Markers face east and run in long north-south rows.

"Established in July 1840 by Rev. Noah Flood, the first church building was constructed in 1841 with a second to follow in 1859 or 1860.
The current building was constructed in 1892 with later remodeling. The Sunday school rooms are a “recent” addition (c. 1980?).

"This center steeple church has a slightly projecting five sided tower with three tiers. The lowest, and tallest tier, has a large 2/2 window in the northern side topped by a small signboard lighted by a gooseneck light fixture. In the canted wall to the west is the entrance that contains a modern door topped by a transom. The canted eastern wall may have had a window or entry at one point, but it has since been closed and covered in modern siding. The second tier has a sloping mansard which is topped by a six-sided peaked roof (third tier). To either side of the tower are 2/2 wood sash windows. Though the historic windows remain in the original block of the building, vinyl siding covers original door and window trim. The long east and west elevations contain evenly spaced 2/2 wood sash windows. The church has had at least two additions, one extending across the back and projecting slightly to the west. The most recent addition is a long gable roofed classroom building or social space connected to the rear of the church by a narrower hyphen/hallway."
