The Cornerstone of the red brick church building, which reflects the founding date of the congregation (what is now First Congregational Church in North Attleborough) in 1748, the date of the first building on the current property in 1824, and the laying of the cornerstone of the current sanctuary building in 1902.
The red brick church which we use today is the culmination of 250 years of worship in downtown Attleboro. This building had its beginnings on April 11, 1903, when the cornerstone was laid by the Masonic Grand Master and members of the local lodge of Masons. The building was suitably dedicated in May of 1904 and was for many years, the centerpiece of downtown architecture. In its history, the church has undergone two extensive remodelings.
Facade: The exterior is of plain red brick designed to achieve an ersatz castle look. The front of the building supports a working bell tower and clock
