It is located at 610 4th Street. [4] The main mass of the church building was constructed in 1850 by William Newman and is an example of Gothic Revival architecture, the first of that style in Portsmouth. [2] It was built in four sections the first in 1833. Sitting on a stone foundation the brick building has multiple steeply pitched gable roofs. Windows are separated by buttresses and topped by lancet arches. The main section, built in 1850, is a 52-by-86-foot (16 by 26 m) nave with a high altar. A two-story tower with paired narrow windows rises from the southwest corner of the nave. The facade of this mass has a large central rose window and two compounded gothic arch entries each with double vertical board doors. The section of the building called the guild hall was built in two sections. The first, from 1833, was the original church and retains its original 47 by 34 feet (14 by 10 m) stone foundation. A section was added to the west in the 1880s with a brick foundation and fenestration and buttresses similar to the main mass. The entries to the guild hall section have Tudor arches. Another addition was made in 1953 consisting of a two-story 60 by 41 feet (18 by 12 m) cement block with parish house, offices and classrooms. [1]
