Meadow Mills Union Chapel


This church shows it's historic charm from two angles. A brick addition can be seen from the other side and the back, and from those angles it looks like a more recent building. It's currently used by the Church of the Brethren.

This is near Belle Grove and the Cedar Creek Battlefield in the Shenandoah Valley. The stormy sky indicates that snow is probably on the way.

    So does it date back to the civil war or after. Nice looking church

    Unusual with both the brick and wooden facades.

    Those old churches are the best. They sure don't make them like that anymore.
