Chestnut Ridge and Schellsburg Union Church and Cemetery
Chestnut Ridge and Schellsburg Union Church and Cemetery, Historic church and cemetery in Bedford County, Pennsylvania.
The Chestnut Ridge and Schellsburg Union Church features traditional log construction with external modifications made throughout its existence since 1806.
The church served both Reformed and Lutheran congregations until 1843, when it became exclusively used by the Reformed congregation until 1853.
The cemetery grounds hold numerous graves dating back to 1806, including the unmarked burial site of a child named Whetstone during construction.
Located along U.S. Route 30 in Napier Township, the church and cemetery received recognition on the National Register of Historic Places in 2005.
The structure underwent multiple transformations, including the addition of weatherboarding in 1881 and its subsequent removal in 1935 during restoration efforts.
