[2] It is noted for its historic Carpenter Gothic church located at 200 Main Street.

The Carpenter Gothic church building was erected in 1854 using board and batten siding with corner buttresses on the base of the bell tower.

One of the founding members of St. Mark's was William D. Moseley, first governor of the state of Florida.

During the early years, services were held only in the winter months and were conducted by visiting vicars from the Northern States.

During the Civil War, the church was occupied by Union soldiers, who caused much damage to the structure.
