Built for a parish formed in 1868, the wooden Gothic Revival church has a gabled facade and bracketed eaves, pointed-arched windows, and a corner two-stage entrance tower with a skirted spire. The transition between the first and second stage is accomplished with a skirt roof. This is the oldest church in Hamilton on its original location.
