Saint Peter's and Saint John's Anglican Church is an historic building in
Reverend Simon Gibbons, Canada's first Inuit priest.[1] Built in 1883, the church is the second of six churches built by Gibbons in Nova Scotia.[1]
It is believed that Gibbons first came into contact with the
neo-Gothic architecture, the wooden church features buttresses, pointed arch windows, and a round-headed window on the east elevation.[1]
The church has been deconsecrated.
