Built in 1764, and extensively restyled in the early 19th century, it is a fine example of Federal and Greek Revival architecture, influenced by the work of regionally prominent architect Elias Carter.

The entrances are sheltered by a projecting gabled portico, supported by round Doric columns.

A three-stage square tower rises above the portico to a bell-shaped cupola and weathervane.

The 1779 move was done due to changing population locations within the community, and was accompanied by the addition of porches to its sides.

At the time of the second move, the porches were removed, the main chamber was enlarged, and the tower and portico were added, based on the designs of Elias Carter used in other area meeting houses.
