St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church

Presbyterians worshipped in Middle Sackville from the 1840's and built a church there in 1871 which was used until the turn of the century when they began to meet in Sackville. The present structure was built as a two-storey hall and dedicated on November 19, 1905. In 1944 it was turned around and reconstructed as a church, which was further extended in 1989.
Marker placed by Town of Sackville, in 2000.
