NYFE Summary

The congregation established a mission chapel for workers at the Johnson Iron Foundry in Spuyten Duyvil. That chapel later became Edgehill, now home to the Kingsbridge Historical Society.

A projecting stone porch frames the entrance. Above it, three carved, leaf-shaped forms fill a triangular window. A small tower fits between the church’s wings beneath a steep slate roof.
