It was designed by local architect H. McGrath and reflects Ecclesiological principles adapted to wood for a small rural parish. It is also the oldest church building in Addison, and both buildings retain a high degree of integrity.","narrative":"Standing at the corner of Wombaugh Square in Addison, this small Episcopal church was built in 1859 of wood with board and batten siding, pointed windows and a steep octagonal spire above a corner bell tower. Its fieldstone foundation rises high on the sloping lot, which emphasizes the vertical lines of the Gothic design. Inside, a single lofty space is covered by a hammer-beam truss system and a plastered vault over five bays. A 12-stop tracker organ built in 1869 by John G. Marklove of Utica remains in its original condition. The 1882 rectory, a clapboarded house with Victorian scrollwork in its gables, shares the lot. The church is significant for architecture. Designed by H. McGrath, a little-known architect from Painted Post, it follows the Carpenter Gothic model promoted by Richard Upjohn while adding local variations such as a wide frieze and small stepped blocks ending each batten. It is the oldest church building in the village.","period_of_significance":"1859-1882","architect_builder":"H.
