St. John's Church
St. John's Church
St. John's Church (the church with a chimney) is situated prominently at the road junction. Built on land given by Hugh Martin, it was consecrated in 1888. The vestry was equipped with bedding and washing facilities, and it was one of the few churches in the country with a chimney. It was usual for the minister after taking an evening service to camp there for the night and then proceed to Cable Bay and Delaware Bay.
