A monument at this site in the Rural Municipality of Pipestone commemorates the Hillview United Church, which operated here from 1912 to 1969, on land donated by farmer William Watt and his wife Annabelle Milliken Watt (parents of James D. Watt). After the church closed in 1969, the building was demolished.
