3. Caroline Church
Not pictured in the show is the Caroline Church, just next to the Presbyterian Church. It’s an Anglican church that housed wounded Continental soldiers during the Battle of Setauket. Built in 1729, the building is still standing today, with bullet holes in the belfry that serve as a reminder of the fighting that took place. Services continued inside the Caroline Church during the war because it was Anglican, but not without incident–the reverend once interrupted his sermon to tell the British that their “damned Redcoats” were stealing potatoes from the church garden.
