One of the best designed &least altered Greek Revival churches in the state, the Northwood Congregational Church stands as one of the finest examples of this style in eastern New Hampshire or adjacent Maine. Changes to the building have been few & are clearly discernible, without detracting from the character of the structure. In 1901 the original clear window glazing was replaced by purple-tinted rolled glass. The openings in the belfry have been fitted with louvers. Original gutters on each side of the building have been replaced by suspended metal gutters. The original wooden rainwater leaders are stored in the church basement & the original wooden parapet which surmounted the cornice of the belfry, which was removed in the 1960's, is also now stored in the basement.This tower contains a bell by the William Blake Foundry of Boston, Massachusetts; the bell was presented to the church as a memorial In 1872, but was not cast until 1888. The church was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.
