Building Construction
The frame is constructed of limestone hewn from the Credit Valley quarries owned by Kenneth Chisholm near Cheltenham. This Credit Valley stone was also used for the building of the 1873 Union Station in Toronto, Government House (Ontario) and St. Peter's Seminary (Diocese of London, Ontario). The St. Paul's United Church roof was made from multicoloured slate. Large stained glass windows in the north, south, and west ends of the building display a fine decorative pattern. The building became home to the Methodists when they joined the United Church of Canada 1925. Today, the historic sanctuary is a popular place for weddings and concerts.
