St. Mary's Parish was formed in 1811.[2] The church, built in 1813–14 and restyled in 1838, is the oldest church in Newton, and is a fine example of Gothic Revival/Federal style architecture.[3] The cemetery, which dates from 1812,[4] is the oldest non-government-owned cemetery in Newton.[5] The property was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.[1] Architecture and historySt. Mary's Church is set just north of Washington Street (Massachusetts Route 16) between Concord and Grove Streets. It is a single-story wood frame building, with a gable roof, clapboard siding, and a brick foundation. Its square tower rises above a gabled entry pavilion that projects from the center of the west-facing facade. The pavilion has two entrances, each flanked by pilasters and topped by a Gothic-arched transom. A central window placed high has a trefoil pattern. Most of the building's remaining windows are sash windows topped by half-round transoms. The tower rising above the pavilion begins with a square section with oculus windows on each side, topped by a smaller belfry with Gothic-arched louvers and a railing with pinnacled corner posts. These details are repeated at a smaller scale above the belfry.[6] Notable features of the church interior are its original high box pews, choir loft and plain glass windows. The plain chancel was added in 1922.[7] The church was built in 1813–14, as a Federal style structure, and was extensively altered in 1838, lengthening it to the rear by {{convert|16|ft|m}}, and restyling the tower with Gothic features. In 1954 the tower was again rebuilt, removing Gothic features in a bid to return the church to a more Federal appearance. The land for the church was purchased by Samuel Brown, a wealthy Boston merchant who had established one of the paper mills in Newton Lower Falls, and he also donated funds toward the building's construction.[6] Current statusSt. Mary's Episcopal Church serves Newton Lower Falls, Wellesley Hills across the Charles River and surrounding areas and is a parish in the Episcopal Diocese of Massachusetts. It holds two regular services on Sunday mornings and has a well-known choral music program. Its current rector is the Reverend Doctor Paul Kolbet.[8][9][10] The cemetery is still in use as evidenced by a burial in 2018.[11] Notable burials in churchyard
