The present church which was built between the years 1795 an^ J799 is located south-east of Verplanck's Point, near the King's Ferry Road and directly facing the Albany and New York turnpike. It is a neat structure of wood, with a tower and cupola, but its interior contains nothing worthy of notice -- a lecture room and porch have been recently added. The tower contains a steel bell weighing 800 lbs., manufactured at Sheffield, England, presented by James R. Gibson and Mrs. A. G. Phelps as a memorial of Mrs. James R. Gibson of Cortlandtown -- inscribed "Kathrina, 1874." A parsonage was erected on the glebe adjoining the church in 1854. The church now holds sixteen acres of land, a portion of which has been laid out in what is called " Cedar Hill Cemetery."

The following warrantee deed, which includes the site of the church and containing altogether an acre of ground was given on the 31st of March, 1795, by James Cockcroft, of the city of New York of the first part to the Elders and Deacons of the Reformed Dutch church of the town of Cortlandt, County of Westchester and State of New York, for the sum of five shillings good and lawful money of the State of New York to him in hand paid :
