Brome Centre Methodist Church - Quebec
In the early 1800s, itinerant saddlebags preachers held services at a place called �Pulpit Rock�, located on the north side of the road. It was not until 1909, that Brome Centre Methodist Church, a little wooden building with an attached side tower and open belfry, was built on Centre Road just south of Iron Hill. John Vernal, a local farmer, donated a piece of his farm for the site. The new church was on a circuit, which included the West Brome Methodist Church, the Iron Hill Union Church and the Brome Congregational Church. Around 1922, Brome Centre was put in a charge headed by Knowlton, which also included the Brill and Creek churches. In 1956, the building was sold.
