First Congregational Church at 10 South Ave., East Bloomfield, was built with a cobblestone foundation in 1837. The church is part of the East Bloomfield Historic District. The organization the church dates back to 1796. The original church building was erected in 1801. Richard Palmer blog.
Editor's Note: Technically the tax parcel for the church states the physical address as just "State Street" with post office box 5 as a mailing address. The parcel is on the northwest corner of State Street and South Avenue. Following the numbering sequence of parcels, the address would be 28 State Street at the entrance of Fellowship Hall; however, the National Register of Historic Places and all internet references state the address as 10 South Avenue, which is the front of the church facing South Avenue.
