   Photographic Inventory

First Baptist Church
Beverly, Burlington County

The Baptist church in Beverly was organized in 1851 and this 40x70 foot brick building was erected in 1867. The audience-room, as the main part of the church was then called, will seat about 250 people. There are relatively few Greek Revival buildings remaining south of Trenton, but this church, and the Baptist church in Mount Holly, built roughly to the same plan, are fine examples.
