Trinity Episcopal Church (Claverack, New York)
Claverack, New York, United States
The former Trinity Episcopal Church is located on NY 23B in Claverack, New York, United States. It is a Shingle Style church building from the early 20th century.
It replaced the church's second building, destroyed by fire, which had itself been a replacement for another fire-destroyed building. In 1975 the church moved out and sold it. Changes were made to convert it into a residence but it retains its historic integrity. In 1997 it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Building
The former church is on the north side of Route 23B, set back somewhat from the road. It is located near the west side of a 1.3-acre (5,300 m2) lot with tall, mature trees, particularly along the driveway in the center of the lot. To the east along the highway are institutional public buildings such as a school, library and a memorial chapel. To the west are other houses, many from the 18th and centuries.
