First Parish Unitarian Universalist Church / Première église paroissiale Unitarienne Universaliste

Built in 1772-1773 on land donated by Colonel Joseph Storer, this church housed a congregation originally located at the Kennebunk Landing. Thomas Eaton enlarged the church in 1803 and the bell tower was constructed. The bell, cast by Paul Revere and Sons in 1803, originally cost $452 and is one of only 23 Revere Bells still in existence. The first clock was installed in 1859, and the present clock and faces in 1883. The original ear-of-corn weather vane, made of iron and wood in 1804 as a sign of prosperity, was later taken down and replaced with an exact replica, while the original was placed at the Brick Store Museum. The steeple was removed, repaired, and re-installed in 2003, and the E. Howard "Round-Top" clock was restored in 2009.
