Notes
  • Significance: An excellent example of this building type and of fine framing and carpentry, representing a vernacular survival of exposed framing and simple trim. Unusually effective in its design and detail, the Meetinghouse illustrates, at an early date, that spare neatness and precision which was to become typical of the Shaker tradition.
  • Unprocessed Field note material exists for this structure: FN-48
  • Survey number: HABS ME-107
