That church at the corner of Elizabeth and James streets is not the church of our forefathers, or is it?
That building at the back of the main sanctuary was built in 1845, bricked in, moved, not once but twice.
That building at the corner was built 32 years later, just after Wellington Square became the village of Burlington, built because what is known today as the Bell Tower Room could not accommodate a growing congregation.
And so, with 180 years of history, Knox Burlington is not only the story of our forefathers but also later generations, the story of one of the oldest buildings in the community, stories filled with mystery, and of course the story of a church lost, and a church recovered, this by worshippers who wanted to remain true to their Presbyterian roots.
