Awesome ruins of an old church. Several headstones throughout the land area. Has a bit of an eerie feel but has significant historical value. Recommend a stop by to take a quick gander.

No, it is in a very rural area. If you're a wilderness person, then there is a ton of trees and bushes off a ways from the site 🤣

I've been several times but it is generally within what would be considered normal touring hours. I never noticed a sign that indicated the gate would be locked at any particular times. Actually, this last time I visited (last month) was the first time they had actually put a fence around it. However, u definitely want to be the in daylight hours to be able to appreciate everything including the trees around it. Have fun and take lots of pics.

I don't believe it's known who, exactly built the church. William Bull funded the construction around 1750, I believe.
