HISTORY

The Leeds rock church and school was started in the spring of 1875. The masonry, roofing, doors, and windows were completed that year and the building was used immediately. It wasn't finished until 1878.

It measured 23 feet by 36 feet.

A bell was acquired in 1877 and has quite a story that goes with it. I was installed in 1878 and was used until the building was replaced.

This church was incorporated into a new church building in 1930.
