The red granite cornerstone reads:
First Baptist
* Church *
1948 -- 1950
"I am the light of the world;
He that followeth me
shall have the light of life."
Oddly, the church's own Facebook page lists them as being at 116 Roberts Rd, but Roberts is just a bit south of here. They don't provide much in the way of history, but they are still very active. There is no indication as to whether this congregation is descended from the First Baptist Church referenced on the cornerstone, or whether they are a newer congregation that has taken over an older building.
