Arnold Mills United Methodist Church: A plain Federal and Greek Revival style structure erected 1825-27. As originally built, the interior was a large, open- room, with galleries on the sides and at the rear near the entrance. The pulpit was located in front of the rear or singers’ gallery and between the entrances to the room. In 1846 the interior was entirely rebuilt. The first floor was made over into a vestry, which ‘was in turn partitioned off into offices in 1966. A new audience room was constructed in a second floor built at gallery level. The pulpit was placed at the front of the room and a choir platform built at the opposite end, beneath the belfry. This new sanctuary saw few changes until 1961-62, when a wide chancel was built at the back. The interior finish, other than the chancel woodwork, is entirely Greek Revival in style.
