 | Exterior view. Photograph by Jack E. Boucher, 1976. (Reproduction Number: HABS, CONN, 2-FARM,2-8) The First Church of Christ is Connecticut's best surviving example of a colonial-era meeting house. Built in 1771 by Captain Judah Woodruff, who also built many of the houses in Farmington, the church has undergone only minor alterations and still retains its side entrance; graceful, tall steeple; and plain, boxy styling. The church has played an important role in the town since it was built. In 1841, for instance, the African captives from the Spanish slave ship Amistad lived in Farmington and attended the First Church of Christ for several months while awaiting passage back to Africa.Credit: Library of Congress. |  | Park Hill Meeting House, Westmoreland, N.H.Credit: Library of Congress. |
