Built in 1855 by Ross Crane, the Greek Revival church has a meeting house plan and a balcony over its vestibule. The two story building with a raised basement is rectangular with a three-bay front, six-bay sides and two wings, added in 1964-1966, at the back. The present portico was added and in 1902, the recessed porch was converted to a vestibule. For more information, see Linley, John.
