Do you know the location of weathervane post #367? Scroll down to find the answer.
Popham Chapel at Popham Beach, Maine |
Now, look carefully at the house behind the chapel. See the fish above the house?
These two weathervanes are located side by side in Popham Beach, Maine. The chapel is right by the road, and the chapel house is set back behind the library next door. Both are similar three dimensional fish weathervanes, with very slight variations. The weathervane on the steeple of the chapel is much bigger.
Popham Chapel was built over 120 years ago. It was renovated by the community after it fell into disrepair during the Great Depression years. In 1988 the community also bought the house next door and turned it into the Popham Chapel House. The Ladies of Popham Circle continue to raise funds for the upkeep of these buildings and community outreach. Please see their website below.
