Description and history
The Church of Our Saviour and Mission Farm are located on the east side of the Ottauquechee River, roughly across the river from the Killington Ski Resort to the west. The developed portion of the property is roughly bisected by Mission Farm Road (an old alignment of United States Route 4), with the historic farm complex on the west side and the church on the east side. The main farmhouse is a Шаблон:Frac-story wood-frame structure, with a gabled roof and clapboard siding, with an attached converted carriage barn. The church, standing directly across the street, is a stone structure, with its tall main block oriented perpendicular to the street, a shorter cross-gabled side ell, and a square tower in the crook of the joint between those sections.[3] Further south on the property stands a smaller wood-frame building that now serves as a bakery.
The farmhouse was built about 1817 by Josiah Wood, Jr., whose father was one of Killington's early settlers. The house is one of the best-preserved examples of period residential architecture in eastern Rutland County. Wood raised a large family here, operated a tavern, and was responsible for construction of the road. The property remained in the hands of various Wood family members, until it was repurchased in 1894 by Wood's daughter, Elizabeth Wood Clement, who then donated it to the Episcopal Diocese of Vermont for use as a mission site. The church, built in 1894–95, was designed by Rutland-based English architect Arthur H. Smith, then one of central Vermont's leading architects. The church maintains an active mission, and the farm's fields continue to see some agricultural uses.[3]
