Post a Review
This octagonal church, a spectacular structure often called the finest church in the West Indies, was built originally in 1711. Like most other wooden structures, it burned down but was reconstructed in the 1800s. Thomas Weekes, a British architect, then re-designed it. Parham is the oldest town on Antigua, and this church was the first building in this town to receive electricity.
