The building at Glenella in the Municipality of Glenella-Lansdowne was built in 1906 as a Presbyterian Church, becoming a United Church in 1925. Still active, a monument in front of the church contains the names of deceased parishioners between 1906 and 2006. A bell atop the monument came from a tower that was removed from the building.
