Built in 1855, it is a fine and little-altered example of rural Greek Revival architecture, also notable for the association of its congregation with Nathaniel Niles, a prominent local minister, landowner, and politician.

The main facade is three bays wide, with corner pilasters rising to an entablature and fully pedimented gable.

The interior has a vestibule under a balcony, which has a pressed tin roof and chamfered square columns for support.

Niles was a major landowner in West Fairlee, and often contended with Morey for a seat in the state legislature.

Early Congregationalist gatherings were held at his house (which still stands to the south), prior to the construction of the first church in 1811.
