The rectory is not located on the site of the church, but it’s not too far away – just a short walk down Scarborough Road. I’ve read that it’s a Stick Style rectory dated to 1883. Apparently the Stick style was a late-19th-century American architectural style, transitional between the Carpenter Gothic style of the mid-19th century, and the Queen Anne style that it had evolved into by the 1890s. It is named after its use of linear “stickwork” (overlay board strips) on the outside walls to mimic an exposed half-timbered frame
On the same site is an attractive Arts and Crafts-style Old Parish Hall built in 1904.

It appears that the church also produces its own honey.
Above the rector’s wife (on the left) and an unnamed fried (on the right). I don’t usually ask people if I can take their picture, but in this case I couldn’t miss the opportunity. I asked and they were kind enough to give me their permission.

The church also has it’s own enclosed vegetable garden. I didn’t feel I should go inside to check it out so I took a few pictures from the outside. I noticed pumpkins and tomatoes. There may have been a greater variety that I couldn’t see from my vantage point.
