Shellmouth United Church

Designation Date: November 8, 2000
Designation Authority: R.M. of Shellmouth-Boulton
Present Owner: Shellmouth United Church Heritage Corporation

The Shellmouth Presbyterian Church was officially opened on 25 June 1905, about a year after it had been decided to build. Before that, as was common throughout pioneer areas, people of various faiths had gathered together in homes and for several years in the local school, to worship. This church, which was constructed by volunteers under the supervision of carpenters Neil and Rory McFadyen and A. Callin, is a typical country church, with its Gothic Revival roots evident in the pointed windows.
