Universalist Church of Westfield Center

[3] In 1847, they paid $60 to purchase a piece of land on the public square in Westfield Center; one year later, the building operations began, and the dedication occurred on 16 June 1849.

Comparatively few interpersonal difficulties appear in the church records; a schism occurred in 1853, but few members left, and the congregation was little affected.

Its main portion consists of a symmetrical gabled structure with a partial pediment, topped with a rectangular tower with a steep pyramidal roof.

[5] Despite the modifications of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the church retains much of its original Greek Revival appearance, including its general simplicity and symmetry, as well as individual elements such as pilasters and the belfry.

Constructed in the late 19th century, the side addition features the substantially different architecture of the Stick style, but in a way that fits well with the original section of the church.
