The church building was built in 1886 and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2010. In addition to its use as a Methodist church, it has a history of importance to its community as a venue for meetings, community singing, homecomings, and circuit church events. The Tennessee Historical Commission describes it as a "good example" of rural church architecture of the 19th century, with solid brickwork, a gabled façade with a segmental arch entry, and large segmental arched windows with multiple lights.[2]
