NOTES
Additional Information:Another map code for this building is WT 18/25, found on the Hand Drawn map. This one story Neogothic Revival church features an irregular shaped plan configuration, a concrete foundation, a brick exterior, a brick and stone trim and an asphalt shingled gable roof. Rising well above the roofline and located off the center of the main facade is a square tower whose own roofline is crenelated. Segmental arch openings throughout the structure are adorned with brick lintels and stone keystones, while gothic tracery embellishes the windows. The entrances are recessed, with one such entrance having a stained glass transom. Parapets appear on every open gable end, including the entrance bays. Exposed rafter ends are visible lining the eaves. The structure is in fair condition.
