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.
