Taken from the website, "Located on the northwest corner of the intersection of Old Emmorton Road and Wheel Road, this church building was solidly constructed in 1865 of stone, with a slate roof and shuttered windows. Inside, the plastered walls were graced by a beautiful wood ceiling. A chandelier holding eight oil lamps illuminated the church, along with lamps at the six side windows, until the early 1940s when electrical service was added.

This small, sturdy building housed the congregation until 1954 when the Mt. Carmel Church merged with the Bel Air United Methodist Church at 20 N. Main Street in Bel Air. The trustees of the church in the years since 1954 had shown the wisdom and foresight to maintain the church and cemetery.

In November 1993, the church was officially reopened by hosting the Bel Air United Methodist Church Thanksgiving Day Service at 10:00 AM."
