[MassHistPres] two more unknowns / "Cahapel" identified

The photo of the church is, I'm pretty sure, St. Barnabas Episcopal Church
in Falmouth.

For those interested, two out-of-staters -- one from R.I. and one from Mich.
-- identified the "chapel" I had posted as Wheelwright's 1890 Parish House
adjoining Henry Vaughan's St. Barnabas Church in Falmouth on rte. 28
opposite the green.  See PICs at bottom.  Half of us have probably driven
past it at some time.

 

And now for something different -- not to say outright odd.  The more you
study it, the odder it seems.  Anyone recognize it? -- possibly on a
hillside or hill top site.  Maybe by the sea.

 



 

And does anyone recognize this church -- note that it appears to have brick
walls but the wood roof structure carries on down to the ground and appears
independent of them.  One thought was that its sparseness and the possible
St. Andrews cross motif in the two apse windows, might suggest it was
Presbyterian.

 

All thoughts on both mystery buildings welcomed.
