Central Presbyterian Church, Hamilton

Central Presbyterian Church, Hamilton

The origins of the Central Presbyterian Church dates back to 1841, when the congregation was formed from only ten members and two adherents. The former place of worship was a schoolhouse at Jackson and MacNab streets, and later, in 1858, a bigger stone church was built but destroyed by fire. The congregation moved to the present site, where the beautiful new church was established and recently redecorated. The current structure was designed by architect John M. Lyle in Georgian style, and built in 1908.
