Old farmstead Victoria West

Before you get to the churches on Rte. 130 there's an abandoned farmstead on the south side of the road.
 The house is an Island-ell style farmhouse.

Victoria West Schoolhouse

This schoolhouses is across the road (Rte 130) from the Victoria West United Church.

Victoria West United Church

Just up the road on Rte 130, not far from the Victoria West Presbyterian Church is the Victoria West United Church.  The exterior has been moderized with new windows, doors and siding.
I will provide more information on this church when available.
 Below:  the photo below was taken in 2002 before changes to the exterior.  c.f. http://www.peipresbytery.net/victoriawest.htm

Victoria West Presbyterian Church

I took a quick detour off Rte. 2 on Saturday morning to take photos of these two Churches.  This is the Victoria West Presbyterian Church, built in 1887.  As you travel on Rte. 130 west you can see the steeples of this church and about a half mile further up the road the Victoria West United Church. 
Below: I took these photos around 11am - as I took a side view of the window the light reflected the colour of the stained glass.
