Old South Church, Newburyport

Old South Church, Newburyport (One of the oldest wooden frame churches still in continuing use in New England, having been built in 1756. The spirit of religious fervor which prompted the people to build this house of worship spread itself to the governmental freedom of the people in the early beginnings of our country. Here, great men and their families worshiped and supported the cause of the revolution. Every pew on the main aisle contained a Sea Captain at its head and among the worshipers were the early Mayors of our city, leading educators of that time, ship builders, mill owners, lawyers, doctors and last but not least, Newburyport's self-appointed Lord, “Lord” Timothy Dexter. The architecture of the building is styled after those built by Sir Christopher Wren.

The Bird of Dawning Weathervane was first put on the spire in 1759. The original was made of pure copper, gilded, and weighed 53 pounds, being hollow inside. When the new spire was built in 1848, the cock was taken down and re-gilded.)
