Saint Peter's and Saint John's Anglican Church is an historic building inBaddeck, Nova Scotia. The church is one of only four remaining churches designed byReverend Simon Gibbons, Canada's firstInuk priest.[1] Built in 1883, the church is the second of six churches built by Gibbons in Nova Scotia.[1]
It is believed that Gibbons first came into contact with theCambridge Camden Society while building Saint Peter's and Saint John's Anglican Church.[1] St. Peter's and St. John's was designated a Provincially Registered Property under theHeritage Property Act in 1990 due to its connection to Gibbons and because it best exemplifies the style of the Cambridge Camden society[1] which advocated a return to simple Medieval styles.[1] Typical ofneo-Gothic architecture, the wooden church features buttresses, pointed arch windows, and a round-headed window on the east elevation.[1]
The church has been deconsecrated.
