This church was moved from its original location, in what is now Leonia, to this spot. It was rebuilt using some of the original stones and timber.
The plaque reads:
"English Neighborhood Reformed Church.
Organized in 1770 as a Dutch Reformed Church, the first building, erected in 1768, was located in Leonia. After the Revolution, it was decided to 'Erect A New One in A more Proper Place.' In 1793 the present church was built on the farm of Cornelius Vreelandt in the locality once know as the 'Point'. Stone from the first building was used in the construction of this church which has survived without major alteration. " [1]
