Originally a Methodist church, it became Cromer United Church after the unification of Methodist, Presbyterian, and Congregationalist faiths in the mid-1920s. The building, constructed in 1911 in Cromer in the Rural Municipality of Pipestone, is a municipally designated historic site (1992). A commemorative plaque was unveiled on 11 June 1995. It was renovated between 2003 and 2008 as part of the Manitoba Prairie Churches Project.
