Mount Bethel Baptist Meeting House

Joseph W. Hammond, a well-known architectural historian who has just completed an in-depth study of the Mount Bethel Baptist Meeting House, will present his findings on Sunday, May 18th, at 2 pm at the Meeting House. The public is invited to attend his talk, which will include a tour of the meeting house that will illustrate his discoveries.

"Be prepared for some startling revelations." said Historical Society president Alan A. Siegel. "Hammond's study will open our eyes to the immense historical value of what he has termed 'the oldest intact religious structure in Somerset County."

Hammond recently completed his study under the auspices of Westfield Preservation Consultants, which was hired by the township to survey the historic site.
