Christ Church, built in 1819

Black and white photo of Christ Church. The church is made of brick, the double door in the centre is open on one side and topped by a lancet window. Another window of the same shape can be found in the bell tower. The openings in the bell tower are lancet-shaped and it is topped by a tall spire crowned with a black cross. Two loudspeakers are mounted on either side of the door and there are many trees behind the church.

Built in 1819, Christ Church was the first church in the County of Argenteuil. This photograph was taken in 1938 during the unveiling of a memorial tablet in memory of John J. C. Abbott, third prime minister of Canada and a native of St. Andrews.
