Historic presbytery dating to 1887. The structure is listed on the National Register of Historic Places for its architectural significance: it was constructed using the unusual method of bousillage, in which half-timbered walls are in-filled with clay, grass, animal hair, and other materials. It is noted as one of only two known structures in the country made by this technique that are more than one story in height.
