Union Grove Methodist Episcopal Church
Union Grove, Salem County

Union Grove Methodist Episcopal church, founded about 1835, was erected in 1869. There is a strong Greek Revival pediment and the brackets are characteristic of the post Civil War Italianate style. The small steeple has been added recently. About 10 years ago, the entire church was jacked up, the old Jersey Ironstone foundation removed, and a new basement was dug, and the church set down again.
