The First United Methodist Church is located at 136 Main Street in Woodsfield, Ohio.
Needing more room, the Methodist Episcopal Church purchased a lot on Sycamore Street and constructed a simple wooden structure in 1825.
To the left of the church the congregation buried their dead in what is now called Pioneer Cemetery.
The church then purchased a lot on Main Street and constructed a red brick structure in 1834.
The exterior features a mixture of the Richardsonian Romanesque style and the Late Gothic Revival architecture and consists of reddish brown brick on a sandstone foundation.
