In Webster, along Route 12 northeast of the center of town, is a tall spire on top of the Sacred Heart of Jesus Parish Catholic Church.
The steeple rises above the front entrance to the church, on top of a square, grey stone-facade tower and flanked by two low cupolas topped with crosses on either side. Above the tower, the bronze spire starts as a bell tower with a wide opening on each of the four sides. On the either side of each opening is a column, and above the openings is a feature that looks like a peak. The spire then starts to taper to a point with a window-like feature about halfway up. The point is topped with a finial and cross.
The chuch has a statue of Christ Jesus in front of the entrance, and overlooks a flower garden near street level.
