Built in 1907, and originally serving a Presbyterian congregation, the United Church is a strong reminder of the earliest days of the community. Although recently resheathed, the overall form, with its broad roofline and handsome Candlesnuff tower, is a landmark. The church, which was built by S.B. Ritchie and Hugh McPherson, still contains its traditional Gothic windows and original altar.

The first minister was Rev. Andrew Kirk, followed by Rev. Rupert Weir.
