Top left picture: Methodist Church, 1880 on site of present I.G.A. Store Ref: W. R. Wood Top right picture: St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church, built of Stone in 1840, was the center of the oldest churchyard in Village of Pickering. The present build-ing was erected on this site in 1891. It is now Pickering United Church. Middle picture: Member of Disciples Church, G. Leng Bottom picture: St. George’s is the oldest remaining Church building in Pickering Village. There is considerable controversy as to its actual date. “This Church has been dated to 1841. A report of Arch deacon (later bishop) Bethune in Nov. 1847, shows clearly the Church had not been begun at that Date.” R. D. H. P. Conservation Report, 1956, Page 129.
