Faith
3
Construction of Northborough's first meeting house began on this site on April 30, 1745, on land donated by Captain James Eager. Completed in 1756, it measured 46 feet long and 36 feet wide and had 20 pews and an upper gallery. It was later sold at public auction, moved, and converted into a barn. Northborough's second meeting house was built on the same spot in 1808 and was destroyed by fire in 1945. Only its bell, cast by the Paul Revere and Sons foundry in 1809, survived and now stands on the church grounds. The current building was dedicated in 1948.
