History

This is a woodcut from 1835/6 of the second and third Meeting Houses of the First Church of Christ, Congregational, in Durham.  Neither building stands anymore, the one to the right is now the north end of the town green and the one to the left burnt down about five years after the woodcut was done and was replaced by a church building that is now the town hall.  We used this woodcut as the thematic artwork for the 300th Anniversary of Public Christian Worship in Durham during 2006.
