Merchant's Hope Church, located half a mile south, is a well-known colonial church whose architectural form and detail are typical of early and mid-18th-century Virginia churches. The building has Flemish-bond brickwork, a modillion cornice, and a gracefully splayed gable roof. Although most of its original interior features were lost during the Civil War, the gallery, stone aisle pavers, and roof framing survived and were repaired by 1870. Historic restoration began in the 1960s and was completed in the 1970s. The original wood trusses were reinforced in 2004. The property was listed on the Virginia Landmarks Register in 1968 and the National Register of Historic Places in 1969.
