Today, this brick house is privately owned. The erstwhile meeting house is obscured by trees and shrubbery but can be safely viewed from the side of the road. I found a record of this structure HERE.

From that aforementioned site I learned in 1831, a frame meeting-house was built near this (existing site), which was occupied until 1853, when a brick structure succeeded it. So, this meeting house was constructed in 1853.
