Old St.Thomas Church June 2024

is characterized by simple white walls and box pews called ‘family pews’. The galleries have simple wainscoting panels of dark wood. The transept and sanctuary walls have ogee arch windows, simple wood muntins of intersecting tracery, and small quatrefoils. The exterior walls of the nave are rendered with white stucco over brick. The tower is wood frame with white clapboard and contains a pair of lancet louvered vents on the façade, and single lancet louvered vents on the sides. The crenellated roof of the tower is replicated along the slope of the gable roof of the main façade. The tall and slender octagonal needle spire rises above the crenellated tower and is clad with slate shingles.
