Ten Mile River Baptist Church
The Ten Mile River Baptist Church, also known as the Tusten Baptist Church, was organized in 1840 by Reverend Henry Curtis, first meeting in the homes of its congregants. The current church building was constructed in 1856. “The layout and construction of this building was typical of smaller Protestant meetinghouses of the period and illustrated simple, but finely crafted furnishing and joinery. The rectangular lines of the building, and use of period moldings and trim profiles imbue the vernacular church with some of the characteristics of the Greek Revival style, popular in the Delaware Valley between 1840 and 1860.” The church was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1997.
