Description
Moose Creek United Church and Cemetery is a Municipal Heritage Property located within the Rural Municipality of Moose Creek No. 33 approximately ten kilometres southwest of Carlyle. The 0.75 hectare landscaped property features a cemetery and one-storey, wood-frame church built in 1916.
Valeur patrimoniale
The heritage value of the Moose Creek United Church and Cemetery lies in its status as the link between the community’s present residents and the original settlers. The church has been the centre of spiritual and social life since the church was built in 1916. Constructed by the pioneers of the district, the church remains as one of their most tangible legacies. The cemetery adjoining the church was established in 1918 and provides the final resting place of many of the area’s first settlers.
The heritage value of the property also lies in the landscape. The Moose Creek United Church and Cemetery is situated on large well-groomed grounds, reflecting property's importance to the community. The borders are defined by a partial shelter belt, and the cemetery is further separated from the church grounds by a loosely-treed border and an ornate brick and iron gate.
