Paisley Baptist Church History
In 1868 the present building was erected on a site purchased from Mr. Peter Sinclair along the banks of the Saugeen River. For ten years prior to the building of the new church the congregation had been worshipping, first on the Elora Road North, in a log building located on a small lot, immediately south of the present building (formerly U.S.S. 7 & 8 Elderslie & Saugeen School).
The original church had a gallery but this later was removed. In 1895 a shed was built for the accommodation of horses of the country members. This too was removed with the advent of cars. ln 1889 a parsonage was erected alongside the present building. In 1966 it was sold as the present congregation is affiliated with the Chesley congregation, the Pastor residing there.
