Description of Property

Summary Statement of Cultural Heritage Value or Interest and Heritage Attributes
The property at 2066 Kilbride St. contains design value as a representative example of a mid-19th century Ontario vernacular church. The front portion of the church was originally built in 1860 on No. 8 Side Rd., east of Panton St., about one kilometre from the Study Area. Initially known as Chapel of the Canadian Wesleyan Methodist New Connexion. It was relocated in 1879 to 2066 Kilbride St.
By the early 20th century, the Davidson Church (dating to the mid-19th century) was also relocated to the property and forms a rear portion of the existing church.
The property is representative of a mid-19th century church as shown through its one-storey height, cross gable roof and simple ornamentation including return eaves and arched windows with stained or coloured glass. Although simple in its ornamentation, the property retains much of its integrity as evidence by the wood sash windows, stained or coloured glass windows, wood siding underneath the vinyl siding. The property is historically associated with the growth and development of Kilbride Village in the late 19th century. Given its location at an intersection within the Kilbride Village, the property at 2066 Kilbride St. is considered a landmark.
