Immaculate Conception Church |
Details |
Roman Catholic Church at 98 Summer Street on the corner of Chatham Street, Portsmouth, NH. The present church replaced an early brick church also known as Immaculate Conception and St. Mary's Church. By March 1933, sufficient funds were raised to begin the construction. First, the earlier brick church was dismantled and then construction on the new church began. While the earlier church was built along the street, the new Immaculate Conception was set back from the road. During the demolition and construction, daily Mass was held in the school hall during the week and with larger crowds on Sunday either in the Knights of Columbus Hall or the Portsmouth Theater. The new church opened on Easter Sunday, April 1, 1934. |
