History and description
The Bethlehem United Presbyterian Church, now known as the Bethlehem Presbyterian Church, was founded in 1730. The current church building, located in Grandin, New Jersey, was built 1870–1871. It replaced the old stone church built 1830–1831. Charles Stewart, an officer during the American Revolutionary War, is buried in the church cemetery.[3][4] The two and one-half story stone Rock Hill Farm was built around 1747.[3]
