OLD TRINITY CHURCH and CEMETERY
Church Creek, Maryland. On the "Eastern Shore" of the Chesapeake Bay. N 38.50407 W -76.16594
Old Trinity Church was built in the 17th century and perfectly restored in the 1950’s. This tiny architectural gem continues to house an active congregation of the Episcopal Church, worshipping in a style compatible with its restoration (11 a.m. Sunday).
Old Trinity is located on Maryland route 16 in Church Creek five miles from the Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge. Old Trinity Church Road is 8 miles southwest of the US route 50 junction of Maryland route 16. (Opposite Hyatt Chesapeake Bay)
The cemetery continues to be used as a burial ground for the community and those drawn to the peaceful setting. In 2008 a
project restored the shoreline in an environmentally sensitive manner. Conservation and wildlife buffers have been planted.
As part of Old Trinity's Good Neighbor Project, Old Trinity is helping to organize a Community Conversation in South Dorchester County to be held on April 22, 2012. For more information please see the South Dorchester Community Conversation flyer and a more complete description of the project under the Attractions and Events tab.
Old Trinity is located one mile west of the town of Church Creek, eight miles from Cambridge, Maryland on Maryland Route 16, called "Taylors Island Road" at the point it intersects "Old Trinity Church Road."
