Reviews
"Really nice looking, historic church and cemetery from the 1700s. Plenty of parking and the Canal Trail is nearby and you can also walk down to the canal and enjoy that as well while there"
"I only visited via the Empire State/Erie Canal Trail. I was looking for the gravestone of a friend's ancestors while I was there - but never found it"
"Amazing history at this site. If you visit, be sure to take a look around at the gravestones near the front and back of the church."
"A church with an old cemetery. Didn’t go inside. It’s near a really pretty section of the Erie Canal so I’d suggest a walk."
"This appears to be a beautiful older structure and an extremely old and under maintained cemetary. The grass wasnt even mowed when I was there but I would fall short of saying it appeared abandoned as there were fresh flags on the veterans graves (I'm assuming from memorial day)"
