THE INDEPENDENT OR CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH OF CHARLESTOWNE FOUNDED 1681
 
The brickwork below is thought to be from the second of four buildings to house the church. Constructed in 1732, it was replaced in 1804 by a Robert Mills designed sanctuary, circular in shape. Said to be the largest domed building in the U.S., it was destroyed by fire in 1861. The present structure, completed in 1891, is of Richardson Romanesque design.
