PHOTO HOPE BAPTIST CHURCH HIGHBRIDGE WAS NOT INITIALLY A HOTBED OF RELIGIOUS FERVOUR. FOR MANY YEARS SMALL GROUPS OF PEOPLE WOULD GATHER IN THEIR OWN HOMES TO WORSHIP BUT BY 1819 THE LOCAL BAPTISTS HAD SAVED ENOUGH TO ESTABLISH A PROPER PLACE. THIS WAS A PRETTY SPARTAN AFFAIR WITH A CENTRAL STOVE FOR HEAT AND CANDLES FOR LIGHTING; BAPTISMS WERE PERFORMED WITH WATER DRAWN FROM THE ONLY PUMP IN THE TOWN.AS HIGHBRIDGE GREW SO DID THE CONGREGATION; THE CHURCH WAS REBUILT IN 1867 WITH LOTS OF OTHER SMALLER ALTERATIONS ONGOING TO THIS DAY. 2013 COPYRIGHT (Photograph and text in Extra Info) NICK OWENPHOTO PAPER THICKNESS NORMAL PHOTOGRAPH THICKNESS
