Located easterly on Old Church Road, this wood-frame structure, built in 1771-1773, is the oldest standing Episcopal church in the State, serving the second oldest parish. The parish began in 1768 as a mission of the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign Parts. The first rector was Reverend Ranna Cossitt (1771-1785).

Located on NH 12-A, the Jarvis Hill Road, about 1 mile south of its junction with NH 12 and 103.

The Union Church was listed on the National Register in 1980.
